Mixhalo

What it does

Mixhalo is a live-event audio streaming platform that delivers high-quality, low-latency audio directly from the soundboard to attendees' smartphones. It replaces traditional silent session headsets and enhances the event experience with features like live interpretation, transcription, summaries, and real-time translation. The platform integrates with event apps via SDK, enabling digital engagement and accessibility.

Who it is for

Mixhalo serves event organizers, conference producers, and venues that host large gatherings such as conferences, trade shows, and live performances. It is designed for events where clear audio is critical, including multilingual sessions, silent discos, and presentations where attendees use personal devices.

Why it matters

Traditional event audio solutions often involve costly headset logistics, poor audio quality, and language barriers. Mixhalo eliminates hardware requirements, reduces costs, and improves attendee experience by providing crystal-clear audio with minimal latency. Its real-time translation and captioning capabilities make events more inclusive and accessible to global audiences.

Launch signal

Mixhalo was acquired by DeepL in 2026, as reported by TechCrunch. The acquisition aims to integrate Mixhalo's live audio streaming technology with DeepL's language translation platform, expanding DeepL's U.S. presence with a new San Francisco office. The platform has been recognized as a Fast Company Most Innovative Company and won AV Awards in 2024.

Brand and naming

The name "Mixhalo" combines "mix" (audio mixing) with "halo" (a ring of light or glory), suggesting a premium, immersive audio experience. The brand positions itself as a zero-hardware solution that enhances live events through seamless digital integration. Its acquisition by DeepL reinforces its focus on multilingual communication.
