Artificial Intelligence is no longer a futuristic dream. It’s the technology behind the captions you see on streaming platforms, the chatbots that answer your questions instantly, and the voice assistants that help you set reminders or translate a phrase when you’re abroad. In recent years, AI has begun to play a central role in how people connect, work, learn, and share information.

With Apple’s launch of the AirPods Pro 3 featuring Live Translation and Google Pixel’s Voice/Live Translate, real-time translation has never been more accessible. These consumer devices are powerful for everyday interactions, but how do they compare to Interprefy AI — a professional-grade solution designed for business-critical multilingual meetings and events?

You’re preparing a regional update or an international team meeting in Google Meet, but not everyone speaks the same language. Sound familiar?

Google Meet introduced AI speech translation in May 2025 during its beta rollout at Google I/O 2025, complementing its existing AI-powered captions. This addition represents both a significant step forward and a direct response to the growing demand for real-time translation in everyday video calls.

But this new feature is still in the initial phase and only covers a pair of languages (English <> Spanish). Therefore, if you’re planning a high-stakes meeting, a multilingual town hall, or a global product launch, this built-in tool alone might not cut it. That’s where professional interpretation services and external language solutions like Interprefy come in — giving you the flexibility, support, and quality you need to connect across languages.

There’s a lot of talk about AI in interpretation right now. Some of it is exciting. Some of it creates confusion.

Speech technology has come a long way. We’re seeing real-time captions, multilingual voiceovers, and live translation become more common. But somewhere along the way, people started to assume that AI can handle everything — even interpretation.

Planning an event that runs smoothly is already a big job. Throw in multiple languages, hybrid attendance, and tight timelines, and it gets a lot trickier.

We get it. You want everyone at your event — whether they’re in the room or joining online — to feel included and able to follow along. But traditional interpretation setups aren’t designed for today’s formats. Many times they’re costly, complicated, and don’t always fit with your tools or timeline.

The good news is, there’s a better way. More and more organisers are turning to flexible solutions that support multilingual communication without piling on extra stress or equipment. And they’re seeing results: simpler setups, smoother experiences, and events that work better for everyone.

This guide walks through how to make that shift — so you can plan events that reach more people, work across languages, and still feel easy to run.

Every January, as Q1 begins, businesses around the world set ambitious goals and dive into a bustling event season with renewed energy. The start of the year is often packed with activities, from product launches to press conferences, as organisations strive to set the tone for the year ahead. Yet, a key challenge persists: how do you create a truly global experience, especially when your attendees speak different languages?

At Interprefy, we’ve been helping businesses and organisations worldwide overcome this obstacle. Here’s how you can use AI-powered live translation and captions to make your events more inclusive and accessible.

Are communication barriers hindering the success of your business? If so, you’re not alone. Many international finance corporations are in the same boat. These organisations face the challenge of crucial information being lost in translation, mainly due to the different linguistic backgrounds of their team members.

As Interprefy celebrates its 10th anniversary, we reflect on a decade of helping the language industry and empowering global communication. With rapid advancements in remote simultaneous interpretation (RSI) and real-time translation powered by AI, businesses now have unprecedented access to seamless, multilingual interactions that constantly adapt to an increasingly globalised world.

Did you know that 94% of multilingual event planning professionals are considering using AI speech translation and captions in their future events? Clear communication across languages has never been more critical. As the world becomes more connected,innovative technologies are paving the way for more inclusive experiences. One of these innovations is AI-powered speech translation, which is quickly changing how multilingual events are planned.
