This guide explains how to install the LiveVoice on your Organization account and add it to your event for real-time captioning and translation.

What is LiveVoice?

LiveVoice is an affordable audio streaming app for live translations at conferences and meetings. You need a paid license to use this app. Refer to the LiveVoice website to review pricing. 

How does the integration work?

LiveVoice can be embedded into the activity panel of a Stage, Session or Expo Booth to enable audio interpretations of your presentations and workshops. You can bring your own interpreters or source from the LiveVoice interpreters network. Attendees will be able to select one of the available languages and hear the translated speed in real time.

Important: Attendees need to manually mute stage audio to be able to hear the translation.
