How each one translates a Google Meet call
Immersive Translate. It is an AI translation product from Funstory.ai Limited (Hong Kong) that covers websites, PDFs, documents, images, comics and video subtitles (privacy policy, checked 2026-11-04). Its homepage lists “cross-language meeting translation for Zoom/Google Meet/Microsoft Teams” and has a “Meeting Translation” entry in its product menu (checked 2026-11-04).
Its Google Meet page says it works through the browser extension and gives bilingual subtitle translation in 100+ languages, extending Meet's built-in captions (checked 2026-11-04). That page doesn't clearly say whether the speech comes from Meet's captions, its own speech recognition or a bot, so this article states no source for Meet.
For ordinary videos, its video translator page says it uses AI speech recognition to generate subtitles when a video has none, then translates them (checked 2026-11-04). Whether the Meet feature uses any of this method isn't clear from its pages.
Clozo. It doesn't listen to audio. Google Meet can show live captions for everyone, free of charge; Clozo reads those captions in your browser and has the text translated by AI (Gemini on Google Cloud Vertex AI, in the EU). The original and the translation appear one under the other with the speaker's name, about a second after each sentence ends. While a sentence is still being spoken, a lighter preliminary translation appears and is updated. No bot joins the call, and only you see the translation.
Languages and subtitles: what each one covers
Immersive Translate's Meet page mentions bilingual subtitles in 100+ languages. Its download page says it supports hundreds of languages, including Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, French, German, Russian, Spanish and Portuguese. The homepage says it integrates 20+ AI and machine translation engines, including OpenAI, DeepL, DeepSeek and Gemini. Its Chrome Web Store listing mentions AI glossaries and context-aware translation (all checked 2026-11-04).
Clozo translates into 76 target languages, including English, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil and Portugal), French, German, Japanese, Korean, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Arabic and Hindi. By default it translates into your browser's language. It works with every language Google Meet can caption. Meet's live captions list 88 languages and regional variants on a computer, 62 of them marked beta (Google's help page). Clozo detects the spoken language from the caption text, so you only choose the language you want to read.
One limit to know about Clozo: Meet captions one spoken language at a time, the one set in Meet's caption settings. If people speak Spanish but Meet's captions are set to English, the captions and the translation make no sense. Choose the language people actually speak in Meet's caption settings. Caption quality (accents, crosstalk, background noise, names, jargon) and machine translation set the limits, and translations can contain mistakes.

Pricing model and limits
The two use different units, so the prices don't compare directly.
Immersive Translate. Its pricing page FAQ says the product can be used free of charge. Free users have a daily limit on translation requests, with a higher quota after registering. The page mentions a quota of up to 50 million tokens per month for built-in AI models and says paid members have higher rate limits. The App Store listing shows “Free · In-App Purchases” with Monthly Pro at $9.99, Annual Pro at $79.99, Max monthly at $34.99 and Max annual at $289.99 (checked 2026-11-04). We did not find web prices or a minute limit for Meet translation in the pages we checked, so check its pricing page for what applies to you.
Clozo. The free plan gives 15 minutes of translation every day, in all languages, with the live transcript. Only minutes in which something is translated count; silence uses none. With 2 minutes left, Clozo warns you. When they run out, translation stops mid-call, Meet's captions stay visible in the original language, and a card offers Pro. Pro costs €6.99 a month or €59 a year (including VAT) for 50 hours of translation a month, transcript export and up to 3 browsers on one license key. You can cancel any time, and within 14 days of buying you get your money back without giving a reason. See Clozo's pricing.
Transcript, account and privacy
Transcript
Immersive Translate's help section for video translation covers downloading bilingual subtitles with timestamps that can be edited by hand. Its Chrome Web Store listing says it can translate subtitle files (ASS/SRT) and EPUB, TXT and HTML files (checked 2026-11-04). We did not find a meeting transcript export.
In Clozo, “Open live transcript” in the pill menu opens a transcript in Chrome's side panel. Every entry has speaker, time, original and translation. You can search and copy it; export as TXT or PDF is part of Pro. The transcript lives only in the browser's memory and is gone when Chrome closes. The last call's transcript stays until the next call or until Chrome closes.
Account
According to its pricing page, Immersive Translate gives a higher free daily quota after registration, so the free tier works without an account but with a lower quota. Its Trust Center says users are identified through an account login mechanism. We found no statement on whether Google Meet translation specifically needs an account (checked 2026-11-04).
Clozo needs no account. You use it with a free Google account, as a host or a guest, and neither you nor the host needs Google Workspace. Buyers of Pro get a license key by email.
Privacy
Immersive Translate's pricing page says translated content isn't retained, isn't used to train AI models and is encrypted in transmission. The Trust Center describes a “Zero-Retention Policy”, HTTPS/SSL/TLS encryption and ISO 27001 and ISO 27701 certification. The Chrome Web Store listing says it complies with GDPR and Japan's APPI and that features needing temporary file retention will state their purpose and deletion rules. Its privacy policy (last updated 2026-09-24) says file and image translation collects the content you submit, and BabelDoc translation stores uploaded file content, mainly to improve translation quality. Those statements concern file features; the pages we checked don't say how they apply to meetings.
For Clozo, nothing leaves your browser until you click “Agree and translate”, and you can withdraw that in the settings. Only the caption text is sent, with the previous sentence or two as context: no audio, video, participant names or meeting links. It is processed in the EU by Google Cloud (Vertex AI), not used to train AI, and Clozo keeps no captions, translations or meeting data on any server. Clozo asks you to tell other participants that their captions are translated, and not to use it in confidential meetings. More on privacy.
When Immersive Translate is the better choice, and when Clozo is
Immersive Translate may suit you better if you want one tool for more than meetings: web pages, PDFs, documents, images and video subtitles. It also lists more platforms: Firefox, Safari and Edge on the desktop, and mobile options on the App Store, Google Play and as an Android APK. Its pages list Zoom and Teams meeting translation as well, and the Chrome Web Store listing mentions many engines and AI glossaries. If you need any of that, Clozo can't help: it works only on Google Meet in Chrome on a computer. It doesn't speak, record, summarize or translate Meet's chat.
Clozo may suit you better if Google Meet is the only place you need translation and you want to know exactly how it works: it reads Meet's captions, no bot joins, nothing is stored on a server, and it needs no account. The free plan has a clear limit (15 minutes a day), and the live transcript is included on it.
Both are free to try, so you can test them in a real call. To try Clozo, add it from the Chrome Web Store, join a call on meet.google.com and click “Agree and translate”. Also check your Meet caption language first.
