Does Continuum Support French? Bilingual Meeting Capture for Canadian Advisors

Yes. Continuum supports French as well as English. Advisors can hold client conversations in either language, and Continuum captures and summarizes the meeting in the language it was held in. For bilingual practices in Quebec, Ontario, New Brunswick and across Canada, that means one tool for every client relationship, whichever language the client prefers.

How French support works in a client meeting

Continuum captures meetings on the advisor’s own device, with no bot joining the call. When a conversation happens in French, the transcript, summary, action items and follow-up tasks reflect that conversation. When it happens in English, the same. Advisors do not need to switch settings between clients or run separate tools for each language.

This applies across every channel Continuum captures: Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, phone calls, VoIP softphones such as Zoom Phone, RingCentral, Telus, Rogers and Dialpad, and in-person meetings through the mobile app.

Why language support matters for compliance

Canadian advisors are expected to keep accurate records of client conversations, and regulators such as CIRO expect those records to reflect what was actually discussed. A note-taker that only works well in English leaves French-language meetings documented less carefully than English ones. Continuum’s bilingual capture keeps the record consistent regardless of the language the client chose.

Continuum’s compliance posture does not change by language. No audio is recorded; the conversation is streamed live for transcription and only the text remains. Consent is logged for every captured meeting, data stays in Canada, and the platform is SOC 2 Type II certified and PIPEDA-compliant.

What to ask any AI note-taker about French

If you are comparing tools, ask three questions. Does it capture and summarize in French, or only translate afterwards? Does it work across phone and in-person meetings, where many French-language client conversations happen, or only in video calls? And where is the data stored? Continuum answers yes to French capture, yes to every channel, and Canada for data residency.
