In 2023, we noticed something: teams can span the globe, but language still divides them. Meeting productivity drops when people struggle to understand each other. Emails pile up because async communication is slow. Client calls need translators. Innovation stalls at the language barrier.
We built Meetlingua to solve this. Not as a workaround — as a fundamental shift in how global teams communicate. Real-time transcription, instant translation, and natural speech synthesis, all working seamlessly in a single platform.
Today, Meetlingua powers meetings for teams in 40+ countries, processing thousands of conversations every day in 30+ languages.
Every design decision assumes a global user. No English-first thinking. No assumptions about one language or timezone.
Audio is never stored without consent. Encryption is mandatory. We comply with GDPR, UK-GDPR, and go beyond legal requirements.
Machine translation isn't perfect. We're transparent about accuracy, latency, and edge cases. No overselling AI.
Accessibility isn't an afterthought. Captions, keyboard navigation, and screen reader support are built in.
We obsess over metrics: translation latency, accuracy, user satisfaction. Every feature is tested and validated.
Clear docs, transparent APIs, honest rate limits. We build for developers who love shipping features, not fighting tooling.
Founding. Three ex-engineers from translation and VoIP teams spot the gap. Start building Meetlingua in a small SF office.
Alpha launch. 20 beta customers. Feedback is intense. We learn that latency matters more than anything else — users will tolerate imperfect translations if the latency is under 1 second.
30+ languages. Expand from 5 to 30+ language pairs. Build the quality rating system to continuously improve translation accuracy. Hit 99.8% uptime.
Enterprise features. Implement screen sharing, recording, and post-call summaries. Land first enterprise customer with 500+ seats.
Present. Scale globally. 40+ countries, thousands of daily users. Focus on calendar integration and meeting history dashboard.
We're a small, focused team of 12. Engineers, designers, and product folks who care obsessively about removing friction from global communication.
We hire for deep domain expertise (not credentials), intellectual humility, and a passion for shipping. Remote-first, async-friendly. We measure by impact, not hours.
Our home base is San Francisco, but we're distributed across 6 time zones. We practice what we preach — most of our team meetings run through Meetlingua.
We're hiring engineers and designers who want to break down language barriers at scale.
