Hears the raw sound
No captions required. Caption-only tools can only translate videos that already carry subtitles. Overhear listens to the audio itself, so it works even when nothing is captioned.
Live audio translation
Understand any audio in any language, live, even when there are no captions.
Other tools only translate videos that already have subtitles, or stay locked inside one meeting app. Overhear listens to the sound itself, from any tab, stream, player or file, and shows you what is being said in your language as it is spoken, with mishearings corrected by context instead of translated into nonsense.
How it works
Pick a source
Choose a browser tab that's playing, open an audio or video file, or use your microphone. No setup, no plugin.
Overhear listens
It captures and cleans the raw audio and detects the spoken language on its own — you don't tell it what it's hearing.
Read it live
Live subtitles appear in the language you chose, with the original speech beneath, and every line stamped to the moment it was spoken.
What makes it different
Reads meaning in context
It follows what's being discussed, so a likely mishearing becomes what the speaker actually meant — the real sentence, not word-for-word nonsense.
Not locked in one app
Any tab, any media player, any file. Overhear isn't trapped inside a single meeting app — it translates whatever your device is playing.
Scrub, rewind, stay in sync
Open a file and it plays right inside Overhear. Scrub or rewind any time; every line stays stamped to the exact moment it was spoken in the clip.

What people say
“I follow Korean crypto streams that never have captions. This is the first thing that let me actually keep up live.”
Crypto trader
“Turned on a Spanish football broadcast, hit Translate, and read the commentary in English while it played. No setup.”
Football fan
“It fixed a mishearing from context instead of translating nonsense word for word. That is the part that surprised me.”
Language learner
“Opened an interview recording, scrubbed back, and the lines stayed pinned to the right moment in the clip.”
Podcast producer
“Works on the tab that's playing, not just inside one meeting app. That alone replaced two tools for me.”
Remote team lead
“Quiet, muffled audio from a phone recording and it still got the sentences right.”

“The original speech under the translation is exactly what I wanted for practising listening.”
Spanish student
“Ninety seconds was enough to see it work on a livestream. Signed up on the spot.”
