VoxTranslate for Chrome

One browser. Any content. Your language.

Add VoxTranslate to Chrome and it translates the audio playing in the tab you are on — live subtitles over the page, and a spoken translation you can mix against the original.

Add to Chrome — free See pricing

Chrome only. Uses the VoxTranslate account and balance you already have.

Three steps, on any tab

  1. Open the tab you want to understand

    A meeting, a video, a live stream, a course, a podcast. Anything playing sound in Chrome.

  2. Press the VoxTranslate button

    That click is what grants access — to that one tab, and nothing else. Pick the language you want to hear and read.

  3. Read it, hear it, or both

    Subtitles appear over the page. On tiers that produce audio, the translated voice plays while the original ducks underneath.

Where it works

It listens to the tab, not to a platform. These are examples, not a support list.

  • Google Meet Web

    The Meet tab in your browser. Not the desktop app — VoxTranslate listens to a browser tab, so it is the web client that works.

  • Zoom Web

    Same for Zoom's web client. Join in the browser and translate what you hear, without asking anyone else to change tools.

  • YouTube and YouTube Live

    Recorded talks, conference streams, product launches. A live stream works exactly like a video: it translates what is playing now.

  • Twitch

    Follow a stream in a language you do not speak, with subtitles over the player and the original audio still there underneath.

  • Online courses

    Lecture players, learning platforms, recorded training. If it plays in a tab, it can be translated.

  • Podcasts and webinars

    Browser-based players and webinar rooms. Nothing to install on the other side, and nobody else has to know.

There is no site list and no per-site integration. VoxTranslate works on any tab that plays sound.

What you get, and what you control

  • Subtitles over the page

    Rendered in an isolated overlay that follows the video into fullscreen. Set the size and position, or show the original line under the translation.

  • Spoken translation

    On tiers that produce audio, you hear the translation while the original keeps playing behind it.

  • Keep, duck or mute the original

    One control from 0 to 100% over the original audio. While the translated voice speaks, the original ducks under it and comes straight back.

  • Your language, per session

    Choose what you want to hear and read each time you start. The spoken language is detected for you.

What it can and cannot see

  • One tab, chosen by you

    Only the tab you pressed the button on. Never your microphone, never another tab, never a background tab.

  • No access to your browsing

    The extension does not request access to all sites. No access to your tabs, history, cookies or network requests.

  • The page itself is never sent

    Not the URL, not the title, not the video id, not the page content. Only the audio, the language you chose and your session token.

  • AI-generated, and it says so

    Subtitles and any translated voice are generated by AI and can be wrong. The voice is synthesized — it is not a recording of the speaker.

What it does not do

The things worth knowing before you install it, rather than after.

  • Chrome only

    Firefox, Safari and Edge are not supported, and we do not claim otherwise.

  • Web clients, not desktop apps

    It listens to a browser tab, so the Google Meet and Zoom desktop applications are out of scope.

  • A few pages take no subtitles

    Chrome forbids injecting scripts into its own pages and the Web Store. Audio translation still runs there; the overlay does not appear.

  • One language detection per session

    The spoken language is detected when you press start. A video that switches language halfway through is not re-detected — restart the session.

  • No latency figure

    We have not measured translation delay on the shipped build, so we do not publish a number for it. It varies with the tier, the language pair, your device and your network.

Same account, same balance

The extension bills the VoxTranslate credits you already have, per minute of speech — from $0.0045 per minute, per language. New accounts start with $2 of credit and no card.

Questions people actually ask

Does it work with Google Meet and Zoom?
With their web clients, yes. VoxTranslate listens to the audio of a browser tab, so Google Meet Web and Zoom Web work. The desktop applications do not, because there is no browser tab to listen to.
Can it translate a YouTube live stream?
Yes. A live stream is audio playing in a tab, and that is what VoxTranslate translates. Subtitles appear over the player as the stream runs, with no waiting for a recording.
Does it record my microphone?
No. It captures the audio of one browser tab — the one you started it on. There is no microphone access anywhere in the extension, and it never requests one.
Can I still hear the original audio?
Yes. The original keeps its own volume control, from 0 to 100%. When the translated voice speaks, the original ducks underneath and comes back as soon as it stops.
Which browsers are supported?
Chrome only. Firefox, Safari and Edge are not supported. The extension uses Chrome's tab-capture and side-panel APIs, which the others do not provide in the same form.
Do I need a subscription?
No. It draws on the credit balance in your VoxTranslate account, billed per minute of speech. Every new account starts with $2 of credit and no card, which is enough to try it properly.

Speak your language. Vox handles the rest.
