Built for Apple Silicon. Local mode transcribes and translates directly on your Mac, so raw audio stays on your device and no meeting bot is needed.
Use Local for everyday listening. Audio is sent to the cloud only after you turn on Online.

60 text translation languages
29 voice interpretation languages
When enabled, current audio segments are sent to the online service and Online points are deducted based on actual use.
Supported languages
Choose from common and regional languages by name. 31 translation languages currently support text output only.
Made for live viewing
Lingather focuses on one thing: showing captions as the audio happens without changing how you watch.
Built for live content
Captions follow the audio
Short phrases appear continuously, so you do not wait for a whole segment to finish. It fits streams, interviews, reactions, VTubers, and gameplay.
One focused job
No meeting bot, no interruption
There is no bot to invite and no full video to upload. Play audio in the browser or Mac app and captions appear alongside it.
Lingather helps you follow the gist while a stream is happening. Music, overlapping speakers, slang, names, and poor audio can affect transcription and translation.
It is useful for streams, reactions, interviews, creator content, and everyday viewing—not for legal, medical, or professional interpreting.
Language support
Input language is what the speaker is using. Translation language is what you read or hear. Lingather keeps the two choices clear.

How it works
Choose languages → play audio → read along
Tell Lingather what language is being spoken and which translation you want.
Capture audio from your browser, a desktop app, the system, or your microphone.
Use Local by default, then explicitly enable metered Online when you need more languages or voice interpretation.
