With a second language set, Both ways translates each into the other: English lines get Spanish underneath, say, and Spanish lines get English. It suits two people who each read their own language.If the main speech service is down or busy, a backup takes over for a few minutes. It follows

Correct with Claude has Anthropic’s Claude check each line a second or two after it’s said, and fix names, terms and quotes the speech service misheard, including words from another language. The line changes in place, on TVs too. It uses your names and words list, and changes a word only where what was said sounds like it.With it on, the text of those lines goes to Anthropic.
