Description
PolyPal is an AI-powered translation platform developed by Timekettle that provides real-time translation and AI subtitling across more than 100 languages. It is built for meetings, courses, events, and live streams, supporting both in-person and virtual scenarios with customizable bilingual subtitles, and works with tools like Zoom and Teams as well as offline lectures and negotiations. A Large Event mode supports five languages with screen projection for up to 2000 listeners.
Beyond meetings, PolyPal translates online videos and live streams on platforms such as YouTube, TikTok, and Twitch with real-time subtitles, recognizing slang and cultural expressions, and can subtitle uploaded videos in one click. It handles two-way international calls in the app without local SIM cards, lets others join calls by link with no download, and offers instant OCR translation that overlays translated text directly onto photos of menus, signs, and documents.
PolyPal also acts as a productivity assistant, generating structured AI summaries and mind maps from meetings and classes, identifying and explaining professional terminology, and maintaining a personalized glossary that syncs across devices. It uses built-in top-tier AI models, including ChatGPT and DeepSeek plus proprietary models, with model switching for fields such as finance, law, and medicine.
Privacy is emphasized, with localized processing, encryption, local file storage, and only anonymous usage statistics that can be disabled.
