Live translation lets your stream reach viewers who speak different languages — in real time, automatically, while you stream normally. Here is everything you need to know.
Live stream translation converts your spoken audio into translated subtitles displayed on your stream in real time. StreamTranslate delivers this via OBS browser source — no plugins, under 500ms latency, 49 languages.
Over 40% of Twitch viewers are non-English speakers. Spanish, Portuguese, French, Korean, and Japanese viewers are among the most active gaming audiences in the world. Without translation, those viewers watch your stream at a disadvantage — they may enjoy the gameplay but miss the commentary, jokes, and story that creates real connection.
With live translation, those same viewers become fully engaged audience members. They get the jokes. They follow the callouts. They subscribe.
StreamTranslate is built specifically for live streaming. It integrates via OBS browser source — no plugins, no downloads. You add a URL to OBS once, and every stream after that has live translated subtitles automatically. Supports 49 languages with Pro plans enabling dual-language display simultaneously.
Check your Twitch analytics for viewer locations. If no data yet, start with Spanish — it is the largest non-English audience on Twitch globally. Portuguese is the second largest, driven by Brazil. Both audiences are highly engaged and have strong streaming cultures.
Live translation does not instantly double your viewers. What it does is remove the barrier that was preventing international viewers from staying and engaging. Over weeks and months, as international viewers discover your stream and share clips, you build a genuinely global audience — one that compounds over time.
