Record meetings in any language. Read the notes in yours.

Wave transcribes and summarizes in 76 languages and translates between any of them. Run a meeting in Spanish, German, or Japanese — get a clean transcript with speaker labels and an AI summary in English. Or any other combination you need.

The problems you know too well

Bilingual meetings produce monolingual notes

Most note takers can't keep up with code-switching, accented speech, or non-English calls. You end up taking notes manually anyway. Wave handles 76 languages natively — and identifies speakers across all of them.

Translation usually means a second tool

Record in one tool, paste into another to translate, hope nothing was lost. Wave translates the transcript and summary in-app, on demand, between any of the 76 supported languages.

Speaker labels break across languages

Most tools either label speakers in the source language or ignore them. Wave's Voice ID learns voices independent of the language being spoken, so 'Maria' stays 'Maria' whether she's speaking Portuguese or English.

Features

Everything you need to capture every conversation

76 languages, native transcription

Spanish, Mandarin, French, German, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Hindi, Arabic, Russian, Polish, Turkish, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Italian, Dutch — and 60 more. Each one transcribed natively, not via auto-translation of an English model.

Translate to any target language

After a recording, translate the transcript and summary to any of the 76 supported languages. Useful for international teams, journalism, fieldwork, and cross-border deals.

Mixed-language meetings

When a meeting switches languages mid-call, Wave keeps up — speaker labels and timestamps stay accurate across the switch.

Voice ID across languages

Wave's speaker recognition is voice-based, not language-based. Once Wave knows Carlos, it labels him correctly whether he's speaking Spanish, English, or both.

Works on every recording surface

Use multilingual recording on iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows, the web, Apple Watch, or via the calendar meeting bot for Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams.
