Tools for real-time meeting translation

The problem, in plain words: I attend meetings where other participants speak a different language and need a less disruptive way to get real-time translation and prompts about what to clarify or ask next.

No tool in the catalog fully fits this yet.

You need a low-disruption, real-time way to both hear/see translated speech and get short in-the-moment prompts about what to clarify or ask next.
