Everything VoxisLive does, in depth.

Driverless system-audio capture

VoxisLive reads your Windows audio mix directly through WASAPI process-loopback — the same low-level Windows Audio Session API that screen recorders use to capture what is playing. There is no VB-CABLE, no virtual sound device, and nothing to route. Install the app and it hears what you hear, immediately, on Windows 10 and 11.

Capture also excludes VoxisLive's own output, so the app never translates its own voice — even in a two-way conversation.

79 languages, swappable mid-session

Pick the language you want to hear from 79 — and in Meeting, the one the other side hears, with a swap button that exchanges the pair in one click without stopping the session. Source-language auto-detection handles multi-language audio.

Two-way meeting mode

Meeting mode runs two live sessions at once: the other party is translated into your language through your speakers, and your own speech is translated into theirs and injected through a virtual microphone. Works alongside Teams, Zoom, Meet, Webex and Discord — and no bot ever appears in the participant list.

A native simultaneous interpreter, not a pipeline

Speech goes to a multimodal real-time model that recognizes, translates and re-speaks in a single low-latency pass — the way a human interpreter works in a booth. It begins translating while the speaker is still talking and stays a few seconds behind.

Psychoacoustic ducking

While the translated voice speaks, the original audio is automatically lowered — mirroring professional simultaneous interpretation — then restored when the line ends. You always know who is talking.

Live bilingual transcript & export

Every session produces a searchable transcript — each source line sits directly above its translation. Export it as TXT, SRT or VTT when the session ends.

On-screen subtitles, if you want them

An optional always-on-top caption overlay floats over any app or game, showing the translated line — with S1/S2 tags where speakers change. The bilingual view, each source line above its translation, lives in the app's own caption stream. The spoken voice is the product; captions are there when you need a record.

Private by design

VoxisLive never joins your call as a participant and is not a browser bot. Voice-activity detection, speaker-change labelling and the free tier's local voice all run on your own CPU. On paid plans the captured audio streams continuously to the translation model while a session is live; on the free tier the stream is gated, so only detected speech is sent. No audio is retained after the session. The full capture-to-playback pipeline is published as a source-available excerpt on GitHub, so you can verify exactly what leaves your machine.

Source-available

The desktop engine's audio pipeline is published on GitHub as a source-available excerpt — audit exactly how capture, translation, and playback work. Get the full app from the Microsoft Store with prepaid minutes and zero configuration.
