Getting started

From your first session to overlay placement, glossary, and display settings — this one page is all you need before you present.

Getting started

No installation required. Open the console in desktop Chrome or Edge, and captions start in three steps.

  1. Pick a microphone

    Choose an input device in the console. At a venue, we recommend feeding the mixer line-out through a USB audio interface.

  2. Pick your languages

    Choose the spoken (source) language and the translation languages to output. You can turn on several translation languages at once.

  3. Start

    Press start and captions begin flowing right away. Pop out the overlay window, or switch to fullscreen stage mode.

Placing the overlay window

Overlay captions open in a Document Picture-in-Picture window — supported on Chrome/Edge 116 and later, it stays on top of every other window and can be dragged onto any screen.

Park it under your slides, along the edge of the stage screen, or anywhere else, and resize it to taste. You can move and resize it freely while presenting.

Heads-up: macOS + Keynote fullscreen

On macOS, playing a Keynote slideshow in fullscreen takes over its own Space and can hide the overlay window. Use Keynote’s “Play Slideshow in Window” (Play → In Window) and the overlay stays on top. We recommend windowed playback for PowerPoint and Google Slides too.

Using the glossary

To keep product names, proper nouns, and technical terms from being translated differently every time, add them to your glossary. One entry per line, in source=translation format.

Newey AI=뉴이 AI
caption engine=자막 엔진
RocketPunch=로켓펀치

Registered terms apply automatically when a session starts, taking priority in both speech recognition and translation. We recommend adding the key terms from your slides before the event.

Display settings

Every display setting takes effect instantly while live — no need to restart the session.

  • Display mode

    Partial updates flow word by word the moment you speak; full sentences wait for a sentence to finish and show it in one calm step. You can set this per language (lane).

  • Line count

    Choose 2–4 lines for the caption area. More lines keep context on screen longer; fewer lines cover less of the screen.

  • Size · source captions

    Adjust font size and opacity, and choose whether to show the source-language captions in a smaller size alongside. Translation is the star by default — the source sits small above it.

A microphone is required, so Newey AI only works over HTTPS. If something looks off, update your browser to the latest version and try again.
