Weekly Recap: VoiceBuddy, API Prompts, and upcoming Voice API AMA

Hey everyone 👋 quick recap of what’s been happening this week across DeepL Bridges:

🎤 Upcoming: Deep Dive into the DeepL Voice API

Our next DevTalk is coming up on May 12th, 5–6pm Berlin time with Christian Meißner Technical Lead for the DeepL Voice API.

We’ll focus on real-world implementation: how to use the Voice API in projects, real-time translation workflows, architecture decisions, SDK usage, and practical questions.

👉 If you’re building with the Voice API, exploring what’s possible, or just curious, feel free to drop questions in advance.

🛠️ Made with DeepL: VoiceBuddy

Tim shared VoiceBuddy, an open-source Windows app that provides real-time translated captions for any audio playing on your system: YouTube, Twitch, Discord, game voice chat, Zoom, podcasts, and more.

It’s a great example of what can be built with the newly released DeepL Voice API.

👉 Check it out, test it, and share feedback or questions in the thread.

đź’» DeepL API Prompts: feedback wanted

Tim also shared a new GitHub repository with sample prompts, schemas, and examples for using the DeepL API with coding agents.

Since this approach is still fairly new, feedback would be very helpful, especially from anyone already using AI-assisted development tools.

đź’¬ Ongoing API & product discussions

There’s still ongoing discussion around the Style Rules endpoint, where the API team is gathering feedback on endpoint structure, language-specific handling, formatting preferences, and developer workflows.

đź‘€ Looking ahead

  • DevTalk: Deep Dive into the DeepL Voice API → May 12

  • More builder-focused discussions and project showcases coming soon

  • Keep sharing what you’re building, testing, or experimenting with!
