Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about Metic.
- What is Metic?
- Metic is a native Mac app that transcribes and translates conversations in real time. Built for professionals who need to follow along during in-person meetings, client visits, conferences, and calls. It runs as a floating overlay or in its own window, so you never have to leave what you're doing.
- How fast is the translation?
- Under one second. Metic uses only the fastest and highest-quality AI models available. Translations appear as words are spoken, so you can follow conversations naturally without delay.
- Is Metic designed for in-person meetings?
- Yes, in-person is the primary use case. Most translation tools only work well on calls where audio is clean. Metic was built for the room: noisy environments, overlapping speakers, varying distances from the microphone.
- Can Metic handle multiple languages in the same meeting?
- Yes. Metic auto-detects and translates from multiple languages simultaneously into your chosen language. If one colleague is speaking Korean and another switches to Japanese mid-conversation, Metic handles both without any manual configuration. It also handles speakers who switch languages mid-sentence.
- How much does Metic cost?
- Metic offers weekly plans starting at $6.99/week and monthly plans starting at $14.99/month. The best value is the Business plan at $129.99/month for 60 hours ($2.17/hour). We use only premium AI models with no cost compromises on quality. See all plans.
- Can I use Metic for online calls too?
- Yes. Metic captures system audio directly from any app on your Mac, so it works with video calls and online meetings out of the box. No bot joins your call. You can also use your microphone and system audio simultaneously for hybrid setups.
- What differentiates Metic from other apps?
- Most translation apps use general-purpose local models and only transcribe in real-time, translating after the fact. Metic uses a transcription model trained for noisy, multi-speaker environments, paired with two translation models: one for instant results, another that refines for accuracy as context builds.
- How is Metic different from using ChatGPT or Google Translate?
- ChatGPT and Google Translate are lookup tools that require you to tap a button each time someone speaks. Metic listens continuously, translates as people speak, and identifies who said what. + For them, translation is a side feature inside a trillion-dollar company. We built Metic because we needed it, and we use it every day.
- Is my data private?
- Yes. Metic is privacy-first. Audio is processed securely and never stored. No recordings are kept after translation. Your conversations remain completely private. Read our privacy policy for details.
