GooglemodelGemini 3.5 Live Translate
A Google audio model that translates speech to speech in near real time across 70+ languages, rolling out in the Google Translate app.
Details
- Translates speech continuously as you talk instead of waiting for each speaker to finish, keeping the conversation roughly in sync.
- Preserves the speaker's intonation, pacing, and pitch in the translated voice and auto-detects the language being spoken.
- Rolling out globally in the Google Translate app on Android and iOS, with an Android listening mode that plays translations through the phone's earpiece.
- A private preview opens for select business Google Workspace customers this month, with broader rollout later in the year.
- Developers can build voice translation apps through the Gemini Live API via partners like LiveKit and Pipecat.
Best for
Live conversations between people who do not share a language.
When to use it
You need translation as you speak, not a transcript to read afterward.
Who benefits
Anyone doing cross-language calls, meetings, or travel, plus business Workspace users in private preview.
