How it works
1. Install SonicMeet
Add the extension to Chrome or Edge, or download the app for Windows or Mac.
2. Join Your Meeting
Join as usual — Google Meet in your browser, Zoom or Teams in the browser or their desktop app.
3. Click Start
Captions appear instantly. Take notes and review transcripts after.
Two ways to run SonicMeet
Same account, same subscription. Which one you need comes down to where your meetings actually happen — and you can run both.
Windows & Mac desktop app
Covers every meeting on your computer
- The Zoom, Teams and Webex desktop clients — and every meeting you join in a browser
- Anything else that plays audio: webinars, recorded courses, videos
- Windows 10/11 · macOS 14.2 or later · free download
Needs a download and install, and there's no Linux version — use the extension there
Chrome & Edge extension
Covers every meeting in your browser
- Google Meet, plus Zoom and Teams on the web — any meeting in a Chrome or Edge tab
- One click to install, nothing to download
- Runs on Windows, macOS and Linux
Can't reach the Zoom or Teams desktop clients — those need the Windows or Mac app
One account, one subscription — both are included.
Built for real meeting scenarios
Follow fast-paced English meetings
See bilingual captions in real time so you never fall behind when native speakers talk fast.
Cross-language team standups
International teams can read captions in their own language while hearing the original.
Take notes without losing context
Tap any caption line to save it as a note. Or add freeform notes — all tied to your meeting timeline.
Review what was said after the call
Full transcript and notes saved automatically. Search, re-read, and never rely on memory alone.
Why SonicMeet is different
No bot joins your meeting
SonicMeet captures audio on your own computer — from the meeting tab with the extension, or from system audio with the Windows and Mac app. Nothing joins the call and no audio recording is kept: the captions appear only on your own screen, with no awkward 'bot is joining' popup for the others.
Auto-stop when the room goes quiet
If there's no voice for 5 minutes, SonicMeet stops automatically — so forgetting to close a tab never burns through your meeting minutes.
Independent transcription engine
SonicMeet uses its own real-time transcription and translation pipeline instead of relying on built-in meeting captions.
Ultra-low latency, 60+ languages
Sub-second bilingual captions and translation across 60+ languages, so cross-language meetings still feel natural.
Two translation modes: Instant and Accurate
Instant keeps latency ultra-low for live back-and-forth. Accurate waits for the full sentence and translates it with a stronger reasoning model and more context — a few seconds slower, noticeably better on technical terms and natural phrasing. Switch anytime, on every plan.
Bilingual captions
See original and translation side by side. Switch between original only, translation only, or both.
Quick notes from captions
Tap any caption line to save it as a note. Add freeform thoughts anytime. No context switching needed.
Full transcript history
Every meeting's captions and notes are saved. Review, search, and export whenever you need.
AI meeting summaries
After the call, get a concise recap — key decisions, action items, and takeaways, without re-reading the whole transcript.
Privacy-first design
Audio recordings are not stored. Transcripts, translations, notes, and summaries are processed only to provide SonicMeet features such as live captions, history, review, and summaries.

Built by someone who sits in meetings all day

Hi, I'm Ethan Hu. I'm a software engineer working at a large tech company in a country where the main language isn't my native one. Most of my week is spent in meetings — standups, design reviews, all-hands — and keeping up in a second language is exhausting.
I built SonicMeet because I was tired of missing things in fast-paced meetings and spending evenings re-reading transcripts just to understand what people said. I wanted something that quietly sits in my browser, gives me clear captions and translations in real time, and lets me jot down quick notes without losing focus. I use SonicMeet myself every day. If something feels off or you have ideas, email me directly — I read every message.
