Frequently Asked Questions
Do captions work when I step away from my mic while cooking?
StreamTranslate listens to your microphone. A wireless lapel mic or headset works best for cooking streams where you move around the kitchen.
Can viewers from other countries follow my recipes?
Yes. StreamTranslate translates your speech into 10+ languages in real time. Spanish, Portuguese, French, and Japanese-speaking viewers can follow your recipes live.
Does kitchen noise affect caption accuracy?
StreamTranslate isolates your microphone input from system audio. Kitchen sounds like sizzling, chopping, and running water do not appear in captions. Using a directional or lapel mic improves accuracy further.
