GPT Realtime Translate

by OpenAI

GPT Realtime Translate is OpenAI's dedicated speech-to-speech translation model, released in May 2026 alongside GPT Realtime 2 as part of a refreshed realtime voice lineup. Trained on thousands of hours of professional interpreter audio, it detects the source language automatically across more than 70 spoken inputs and renders live translated speech in 13 target languages, with the target set by a BCP-47 code when the session starts. The model streams over a dedicated realtime endpoint, returning translated audio and transcript text while the speaker is still talking, and like a human interpreter it waits for enough context before committing to speech. It suits live interpretation in multilingual calls, meetings, broadcasts, classrooms, and any voice product where two languages need to flow in real time.
