Real-time smartphone-based event captioning and translation

Overview

Glot provides AI-driven real-time captioning and translation for live events, accessible directly on attendees’ smartphones. It supports 60+ languages and can deliver captions and translations without the need for specialized hardware or apps, using a simple QR code. The platform is scalable enough for 50–500 participants across multiple rooms and sessions, and is suitable for conferences, training, lectures, international meetings, and guided tours. It processes speech in real time with a privacy-by-design architecture and does not store data, ensuring GDPR compliance. Pricing is transparent with no hidden fees or per-language surcharges, aiming to be a turnkey solution that reduces costs compared with traditional interpreters and complex equipment. Glot’s goal is to make international events more inclusive and understandable by removing language barriers for multilingual audiences around the world.
