> Reading and understanding text is much slower than just listening.

While watching their demo video, I had no trouble reading and interpreting the translated English at the speed the conversations were going on. There's a chance that some speakers would speak much quicker, but I think this software covers the vast majority of use-cases.

Real-time translation is a great start. I'm sure these models can be tweaked over time for better interpretation, especially given that they learn based on context.

There is another aspect to this: the small pauses forced by technology will give people just enough time to think, which is welcome in a business meeting.

Full disclosure: I am not a user or a customer, but this looks like it is something I would one day want to use if the opportunity presents itself.
