For years, event professionals have struggled with a fundamental challenge: how do you make event content truly accessible to a diverse, global audience? Keynotes, panels, and discussions are packed with insights, but if attendees can’t fully understand or engage with the content in real time, that value is lost.
This is no more a problem with Snapsight 2.0. Today, we’re launching one of our most requested features: Live Transcription & Translation – a breakthrough in real-time content accessibility that supports an industry-leading 86 attendee languages, 75 speaker languages, and over 6,300 language pairs.
The Road to Live Transcription & Translation
Snapsight started as an AI-powered summarization tool, designed to capture the essence of event content through real-time summaries, key takeaways, and idea clouds. But as we worked with event professionals across industries, we saw the bigger picture.
- Events were becoming more global, attracting attendees from dozens of linguistic backgrounds.
- Organizers were struggling to scale content accessibility beyond a single dominant language.
- Live content was valuable, but only if it could be understood by all attendees.
- Relying on traditional interpreters was costly and logistically complex for many events.
Our vision for Snapsight 2.0 was to evolve from a summarization tool into a true content intelligence platform, one that not only captures what’s said but makes it universally accessible and meaningful in real time.
