About
Voco is live sermon translation for multilingual churches. Your speaker talks as normal; everyone else reads or listens along in their own language, on the phone already in their pocket.
There is no app to install and no hardware to buy. You put a QR code on the screen or in the welcome pack, people scan it, pick a language, and they are in. Your church keeps one permanent link (voco.church/c/your-church), so it works the same way every week and visitors can be handed it in seconds.
157+ languages are supported, including Farsi, Arabic, Spanish, Portuguese, Polish, Korean, Mandarin and Ukrainian. Attendance is unlimited and there are no per-seat fees, so a congregation of 40 and a congregation of 4,000 cost the same.
It is built for how church AV actually works. Take audio straight from the sound desk, a laptop or a phone. Push translated captions to OBS, ProPresenter or an in-room screen. Boost the words your church says a lot (names, book titles, your own shorthand) so they come out right, with a profanity filter on by default. If the WiFi drops, listeners auto-reconnect and the lines they missed are backfilled, so nobody loses the thread mid-sermon.
Plans start at £6/week with a 7-day free trial, no card required, and no contract.

Who it is for
Voco is built for churches and ministries with more than one language in the room:
- Multilingual churches where English is not everyone's first language
- Congregations welcoming refugees, asylum seekers and Farsi-speaking believers
- Church plants and small congregations with no AV budget for translation hardware
- Multi-site and larger churches needing unlimited listeners, no per-seat fees
- Conferences, retreats and mission gatherings with international guests
Pricing
Voco bills weekly in GBP, no contract, no per-listener fees. Starter £6/week (£24/mo): one weekly service, 1-2 language groups. Church £12/week (£48/mo): multiple services, unlimited languages, OBS/ProPresenter output, 3 seats. Pro £22/week (£88/mo): unlimited live hours, Signal API, unlimited seats. Annual billing saves 20%. All plans: unlimited attendees, 7-day free trial, no card.
Verdict
If your congregation speaks more than one language, Voco removes the two things that usually stop churches translating: cost and kit. There is no app to download, no receivers to hand out and charge, and no per-seat fee. A visitor scans the QR code on the welcome slide and follows along on the phone already in their hand. It is priced for church budgets rather than conference AV: £6/week to start, £12/week for most churches running multiple services, and a 7-day free trial with no card. Next to enterprise platforms that hide pricing behind a sales call, that is a short path from curious to running it on Sunday. The practical details are where it earns trust. Pull audio straight from the sound desk, push captions to OBS or ProPresenter, boost the names and terms your church says every week, and keep listeners in sync with auto-reconnect and backfill when the building WiFi wobbles. It is machine translation, so it will not replace a skilled human interpreter for a keynote that has to be word-perfect. But for the ordinary Sunday, where the alternative is that part of the room follows maybe half the sermon, Voco is an easy yes. Take the free week and try it on one service.

FAQ
What is Voco?
Voco is a live sermon translation system for churches. It listens to whoever is speaking at the front and delivers the translation to each person's own phone, in their own language, in real time. There is no app to install and no hardware to buy: people scan a QR code, choose a language, and follow along. It supports 157+ languages and unlimited attendees.
Who is Voco for?
Churches and ministries with more than one language in the room. That includes multilingual and multi-ethnic congregations, churches welcoming refugees and asylum seekers, church plants with no AV budget, larger multi-site churches, and conferences or mission gatherings with international guests.
How much does Voco cost?
Starter is £6/week (£24/month) for one weekly service and 1-2 language groups. Church is £12/week (£48/month) for multiple services, unlimited languages, OBS/ProPresenter output and 3 team seats. Pro is £22/week (£88/month) for unlimited live hours, Signal API access and unlimited seats. Annual billing saves 20%, multi-site pricing is available on request, and every plan starts with a 7-day free trial with no card and no contract.
How do I get started with Voco?
Start the 7-day free trial at voco.church, connect your audio source (sound desk, laptop or phone), and share your church's permanent QR code and link. Most churches are running their first translated service the same week, and it is worth testing on one service before rolling it out across the week.
Do people need to download an app?
No. Listeners scan a QR code or open your church's link in a browser, pick their language, and they are in. Nothing to install, no account to create, and no receivers to hand out or charge before the service.
How many languages does Voco support?
157+ languages and regional variants, including Farsi, Arabic, Ukrainian, Polish, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Korean, Japanese and Mandarin. On the Church and Pro plans you can run unlimited languages at once.
What happens if the church WiFi drops mid-sermon?
Listeners reconnect automatically and the lines they missed are backfilled, so they can catch up rather than losing the thread. Voco is built for real church buildings with imperfect WiFi, not lab conditions.
Can Voco put translations on the big screen?
Yes. Translated captions can be sent to OBS as a browser source, to ProPresenter as a web item, or to any in-room screen, so you can run a side screen in a second language as well as phones. Pro adds Signal API access for Stream Deck and custom AV remotes.

Appreciate it! Firstly I built it for my in laws when visiting us in the UK and vice versa for when I visit Mexico. Then realised there are many churches that each week have people in their congregation that would be better served with the message translated into their language
