IshuVani: Free Live Voice Translator

Translate live speech into your chosen language with Google Translate or optional Gemini AI.

IshuVani is a fast, free, and privacy-focused live voice translator for Chrome that turns spoken speech into accurate, ready-to-use text translations across 28+ Indian and international languages. Whether you are communicating across languages in daily work, drafting multilingual messages, learning a new language, or speaking in your native tongue and translating into English (or vice versa), IshuVani gives you instant voice-to-text transcription and translation right from your browser. WHAT ISHUVANI DOES: • Live Speech-to-Text & Translation: Speak naturally in your chosen language (including Hindi, Punjabi, English, Bengali, Telugu, Marathi, Tamil, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Urdu, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Arabic, and more) and watch your live transcript and translated output appear in real time. • Dual Translation Engines: Use Google Translate out of the box with zero setup, or switch to Gemini Translate by adding your own free Google AI Studio API key for context-aware AI translations. • Phonetic English Transliteration (Roman Script): Toggle on Roman-script transliteration to read and pronounce target-language translations phonetically in English letters. • Flexible Workspace Modes: Open IshuVani as a quick toolbar popup, pop it out as a standalone Floating Window, dock it to the Chrome Side Panel while browsing, or enable Ghost Mode so the window stays subtly dimmed until you hover over it. • Hardware Microphone Control & Live LED Meter: Select your exact physical microphone, filter out virtual audio loopback drivers, and verify your voice levels before speaking with the built-in 12-segment LED audio visualizer. • Editable Transcripts & One-Click Copy: Edit up to 200 characters in the live transcript box before re-translating, and copy your final translation to the clipboard with a single click. • Global Keyboard Shortcut: Start or stop voice translation anytime using Alt+Shift+S (Option+Shift+S on macOS). WHY INSTALL ISHUVANI? • 100% Free & Ad-Free: No subscriptions, no paywalls, no account registration, and zero clutter. • Direct & Instant Workflow: Stop switching tabs to copy-paste between speech recognizers and translation websites—speak, review, and copy from one lightweight utility. • Privacy-First by Design: Microphone access is active only when you explicitly start speaking or test your input. IshuVani never stores audio recordings and never uploads your data to any developer-owned server. Your preferences and optional Gemini API key are stored strictly locally in your browser. Free and ad-free. If IshuVani is useful, voluntary support helps fund future updates. ☕ Support this project - https://buymeacoffee.com/punitdixit
