How it works

Simple to run. Invisible to the congregation.

Nothing about how your service runs has to change. A small appliance listens to your sound board, and everyone else just uses their phone.

A small on-site appliance connects to an auxiliary output on your sound board. No rewiring, no new microphones.

The sermon is transcribed and translated in real time, in about two seconds.

Text and audio reach each phone through a simple web link. Listeners tap a language and follow along.

Your operator panel shows who is listening and in what language. Add languages any time.

Getting started

Up and running in an afternoon.

No IT department needed. Most churches are live the same day the appliance arrives.

A pre-configured mini-PC arrives at your church with the LivingTongues software already installed.

Connect it to power
Connect it to the internet
Connect it to the sound board: one cable into an auxiliary output on your mixer. Your existing setup keeps working as it always has.

Open your operator panel and add your church name, logo, accent color, and languages. It takes about ten minutes.

Share your listener link as a QR code in the bulletin, on the screen, or by text. People tap their language and translation starts.

We monitor uptime, push updates remotely, and are there when you need us. Your team runs the service; we handle the technology.

Built to be dependable

Designed around real services, with the things that go wrong in real sanctuaries.

In the room

Works on your church Wi-Fi, with about two seconds of delay for people in the building
Cloud fallback if the on-site appliance goes offline
Worship mode steps aside during music, so no singing bleeds into translation
Live operator panel: active listeners, language breakdown, and delay
Add a new language from your dashboard, with no technical work
Any phone, iOS or Android, with nothing to install

We run a no-cost pilot: we set it up, walk you through it, and let your congregation try it live before you decide anything.
