ElevenLabs
Eleven Realtime Translation lets two people speak different languages on the same live call. Each person speaks in their own language and hears the other person translated into theirs, using a natural voice.
The feature supports more than 90 languages. It automatically detects the language used by each speaker, removing the need to select languages before or during a conversation.
According to the LinkedIn launch post, access is open to enterprise customers during the alpha.
Eleven Realtime Translation Balances Speed and Accuracy
Teams can configure each deployment around the type of call they handle. Claims and billing conversations can prioritise translation accuracy. Everyday calls can use lower latency to keep the exchange moving more quickly.
The translated speech can use a voice created by the organisation or one selected from the ElevenLabs voice library. The system is designed to retain expressive delivery rather than producing a flat spoken translation.
This launch follows ElevenLabs’ release of Eleven v4 for expressive and real-time speech. Eleven Realtime Translation applies live voice generation to conversations between people, rather than voice agents speaking with callers.
Security for Regulated Calls
Eleven Realtime Translation includes SOC 2, PCI DSS Level 1, ISO 27001, HIPAA and GDPR security coverage. These standards match the sectors named for the launch, including calls that may involve payment, health or claims information.
A deployment can therefore combine automatic language detection, a chosen voice and a speed-versus-accuracy setting for its specific call type. The translation happens while both people remain on the call.
