Google ships Gemini 3.5 Live Translate — continuous speech-to-speech across 2,000+ language pairs
Gemini 3.5 Live Translate auto-detects 70+ languages and streams translated speech seconds behind the speaker, preserving tone and pacing with no manual setup; it is live today in Google Translate on Android and iOS, the Gemini Live API at $0.023/min, and Google Meet enterprise preview covering 2,000+ language pairs. The API price point and Meet's jump from 5 to 70+ supported languages are the signal: real-time multilingual voice is now priced infrastructure, not a specialty integration.
