ryooit··on Launch HN: Cuckoo (YC W25) – Real-time AI translator for global teams
This looks super useful for global teams dealing with technical discussions! I’m curious about how Cuckoo handles domain-specific jargon beyond what’s included in uploaded reference documents. For instance, in fields like AI/ML or DevOps, terminology evolves rapidly, and even human interpreters sometimes struggle with nuanced technical meanings.

Does Cuckoo adapt dynamically to new terms within a conversation, or does it require preloading domain knowledge beforehand? Also, how do you ensure accuracy in cases where direct translation doesn’t capture the intended meaning (e.g., idiomatic phrases or cultural context differences)?

Excited to see how this evolves!
