Ambassador, your real-time professional translator
Ambassador is an over-the-ear interpret engineered for professionals and travellers.
It is specifically designed for high-quality translation accuracy, easy and hygienic sharing, and features 3 modes for different scenarios: Listen, Lecture, and Converse.
These smart earbuds are designed to allow professionals from all backgrounds to have smooth conversations free from the constraints of language barriers.
What technology is Ambassador based upon?
The technology behind Ambassador is made up of speech recognition, machine translation, and speech synthesis.
These technologies are subjective to several elements, including the person speaking, the chosen language, and the context of the conversation.
In general, the translations are accurate for general conversation but with our machine learning technology, the more people use the technology the better it gets.
Ambassador supports 20 languages
Ambassador supports English, French, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, German, Russian, Arabic, Greek, Hindi, Polish, Turkish, Chinese Mandarin, Japanese and Korean, plus 5 new languages, including Cantonese, Dutch, Vietnamese, Thai, and Hebrew.

Remember Babel fish, the small, bright yellow fish in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy which can be placed in someone’s ear and allows them to hear any language translated into their native language?
Well, our world has caught up with author Douglas Adams’ imagination only the solution is not biologic, it’s a technological device.
