Facebook buys voice translation start-up
SAN FRANCISCO — Facebook connects people from around the world and its latest acquisition could help it cover more ground.
In a Facebook post yesterday, the social network’s Director of Product Management, Mr Tom Stocky, said it had agreed to acquire Mobile Technologies (MT), a start-up based in Pittsburgh.
The company is behind the Jibbigo app, which translates voice snippets or texts to one of 25 available languages. The translated text can be read on-screen or read out loud.
Available on Apple’s iOS and Google’s Android devices, Jibbigo is popular with travellers and international health workers. The app charges for its offline translator packs, which can be used without the need for data or Wi-Fi connection.
