What is Saydi
1 min read
Saydi translates speech live. Someone talks in their own language, and the translation shows up on the screen while they are still talking. The people in the room don't need to install anything or create an account. They just read.
When the meeting ends, Saydi keeps a transcript in both languages, so you can send it to anyone who missed it.
What you can use it for
| You want to | Use |

2 things worth knowing before you start
Good sound in, good translation out
A decent microphone, speaking close to it, and one person talking at a time. These 3 things matter more than any setting in the app. See Getting better translations.
Teach it your words first
People's names, machine names, product codes. If Saydi hasn't seen them, it translates them like ordinary words. Ten minutes in AI Context fixes that.
