TL;DR
Add one browser source URL to your existing stream setup. StreamTranslate listens to the sermon and displays translated captions on screen in under 500ms, in 50+ languages. No booth, no equipment, no sales call — pricing is public and you can start today with a free 6-hour trial.

Why churches use this

Most churches that stream their services already have online viewers who don't speak English as a first language — extended family watching from abroad, immigrant and refugee communities in the congregation, or a multilingual neighborhood the church is trying to reach. Traditional live interpretation means a booth, a trained interpreter, and headsets — expensive and hard to staff every week.

StreamTranslate replaces that setup with software: it listens to the live audio from your stream and displays translated captions directly on screen, in real time, for whoever's watching — whether that's an online viewer on YouTube or Facebook Live, or an in-person attendee following along on a screen in the room.

How it works

  1. Start a free trial — 6 hours, no credit card
  2. Pick the language being spoken and the language(s) to translate into
  3. Copy the browser source URL StreamTranslate gives you
  4. Paste it into OBS (or your streaming software) as a Browser Source
  5. Go live — captions appear on screen automatically as the sermon is spoken

Who sets this up

Whoever already runs your stream — most churches have a volunteer or small AV team managing OBS or similar software already. Adding StreamTranslate is the same as adding any other on-screen graphic: paste a URL in as a Browser Source, position it, done. No coding, no plugin installs, no IT department required.

Languages supported

50+ languages including Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Polish, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin Chinese, Arabic, Hindi, Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Turkish, Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Greek, Czech, Hungarian, Romanian, and Ukrainian, among others.

Pricing — no demo call required

Unlike most church broadcast-translation vendors, our pricing is public, self-serve, and visible before you sign up: free 6-hour trial (no card), Stream Pass at $9.99 one-time (12 hours, good for a single special service), Starter at $14.99/mo (25 hrs), Pro at $34.99/mo (50 hrs + dual-language display), or Unlimited at $149/mo with no hour caps. Translation quality and speed are identical on every plan — the higher tiers just add more hours and features, not better translation.

Frequently asked questions

Can StreamTranslate translate our live-streamed church service in real time?
Yes. It works with any live-streamed service — YouTube Live, Facebook Live, or a website embed via OBS — translating the spoken sermon into on-screen captions in under 500ms.
Do we need a translation booth, headsets, or special hardware?
No. StreamTranslate replaces interpreter booths and listening devices entirely. Setup is a single browser source URL added to your existing streaming software — nothing else to buy or install.
Can our AV volunteer set this up without technical training?
Yes. It's a copy-and-paste URL added as a Browser Source in OBS (or equivalent software), the same way you'd add any on-screen graphic. No coding, no app installs, no API keys.
Does this help in-person attendees, or only online viewers?
It captions whatever your live stream shows. If you display that stream on a screen in the room, in-person attendees following the screen see the same translated captions as your online audience.
Do we have to talk to a salesperson or book a demo to see pricing?
No. Pricing is public and self-serve on our pricing page. Start a free trial and go live without a sales call or contract.
How much does it cost?
Free 6-hour trial, no card required. Then Stream Pass at $9.99 one-time (12 hours), Starter at $14.99/mo, Pro at $34.99/mo, or Unlimited at $149/mo with no hour caps.
