Zuddl integrates with Interprefy to support the simultaneous translation of the spoken content in an event into any desired language. Interprefy uses live interpreters to translate the incoming audio source(s). This capability allows your event to be multilingual and accessible to audiences across the globe.
Please note that the support for multilingual audio is available only on a per-stage basis.
Note: Interprefy is currently available for only the Enterprise plan. However, there is some additional cost based on your specific event requirements such as the number of languages to interpret and languages to interpret into, event duration, and a few others.

Note: Based on your requirements it may take a minimum of 2 weeks time to confirm the integration.
- On the Zuddl dashboard, go to Zone Setup > Stage > Custom Apps > Multilingual Support.
- Turn on the toggle and enter the token you received from Interprefy in the Add Token field.
- Click Save Changes.
- This enables multilingual audio support for the particular stage.Once multilingual support has been turned on, attendees can select a language of their choice on a stage and start listening to the simultaneously translated version of the spoken content in real-time.
Caution: Since the audio translation is done by a real human interpreter and not a bot, you should expect a lag of approximately 5 seconds.
Attendee Instructions
An attendee should follow the below steps in a live stage to enable interpretation:
- On the stage, click the translation icon (beside the settings gear icon) to open the interpreter widget.
- Select the desired language from the available dropdown options.
- Click Connect.
This enables interpretation of the incoming audio into the selected language.
Note: The attendee must mute the primary audio output to avoid listening to it together with the interpreted audio.
