Wordly supports the full content lifecycle of an event: setup and preparation before the doors open, live translation and captions on stage, and multilingual content like transcripts, summaries, subtitles, and AI dubbing afterward. For event and meeting planners, that means one platform handles language access and accessibility from the first planning call through every piece of content the event produces once it ends.
Most planning conversations treat an event as a single moment: the day attendees walk in. In practice, every event is really three events. There is the event you plan, the event you run live, and the event you turn into content afterward. Each one has its own language and accessibility needs, and each one is a chance to reach a wider audience or to quietly lose part of the one you already have.
That audience is more global every year. In Wordly's 2026 State of AI Translation and Captions report, 79% of event leaders said the number of non-native speakers at their events is growing, and 49% now host six or more languages at a single event. When the language on the main stage is not the language of the whole room, the moment an attendee stops understanding is the moment they stop engaging. They stop taking notes, stop asking questions, and stop connecting with the people around them.
Wordly is built to close that gap across all three phases, in one platform, for in-person, virtual, and hybrid events. Here is how it works at each stage.

The work that makes a multilingual event feel effortless happens before anyone arrives. Wordly is designed so a small team can get set up quickly and walk into event day confident that translation and captions will simply work.
Every organization comes to Wordly with a different mix of events, languages, and technical setups, so onboarding is tailored to yours. Your team is guided through connecting Wordly to your audio and conferencing setup, inviting attendees, and running a session, so the people responsible on the day know exactly what to do. For flagship events, Wordly's team works alongside yours to plan the deployment end to end.
Every industry has language of its own: product names, acronyms, executive names, and technical terms that generic translation gets wrong. Wordly's glossary lets you fix that ahead of time. Using boost, block, and replace controls, you tell Wordly which terms to prioritize, which to leave untranslated, and which to swap, so your branded and technical vocabulary comes through cleanly in every language. Glossaries can be shared across your team to build collaboratively, and Wordly's professional services can help fine-tune them for high-stakes sessions.
Wordly fits the way event teams already work. It connects to the major conferencing platforms for virtual and hybrid sessions, and for in-person events it runs from attendees' own devices, so there is no hardware to source, ship, or staff. Sessions can be set up and reused, glossaries carried from one event to the next, and access managed centrally, which turns a complex logistical task into a repeatable part of your production process.
This is the moment everything is built around. When a session starts, attendees follow along live in the language that works for them, in real time.
As a speaker talks, Wordly translates in real time and delivers it to each attendee in their chosen language. People follow on their own devices in the room, or in the same interface they are already using for a virtual or hybrid session. Wordly supports dozens of languages at once, handles multilingual speakers, and can switch the input language automatically, so a session can move between presenters and languages without anyone touching a setting. The result is a single session that every attendee experiences in their own language, without booths, headsets, or separate rooms.
Not everyone who benefits from Wordly is reading in a second language. Live captions make every session easier to follow for attendees who are deaf or hard of hearing, for anyone in a loud hall or a seat far from the stage, and for people who simply absorb more by reading along. Captions appear in real time and can be displayed in each attendee's language, which means accessibility and translation are handled by the same tool at the same time.
Live events do not keep business hours, and neither does Wordly's support. Help is available around the clock, so whatever time zone you are running in and whenever you are setting up, there is someone to reach. For large and flagship events, on-site support can be arranged so a Wordly specialist is in the room to manage setup, monitor sessions, and handle anything that comes up in the moment.
This is not theoretical. Wordly has powered live translation and captions at some of the largest and most respected events in the industry.
Cvent's flagship user conference brought more than 4,000 event professionals to Music City Center in July 2026. Even a US-hosted event of this scale draws an international, cross-industry audience, and Wordly's live translation and captions helped attendees follow keynotes and sessions in the language and format that worked for them.
The Global Business Travel Association's convention gathers business travel professionals from six continents at McCormick Place. For an audience that global, a single floor language leaves people behind. Wordly delivered live translation across many languages so attendees from around the world could engage with the main stage and education sessions.
The 2026 CEMA Summit gathered more than 850 event marketers from 19 countries under the theme "Where the World Comes Together." Wordly helped make that theme literal, giving a truly international group of marketers live access to sessions in their preferred language.
The American Society of Association Executives brought thousands of association professionals together across more than 100 education sessions. With an audience this large and this varied, Wordly's live captions made sessions accessible to attendees who are deaf or hard of hearing and easier to follow in a busy convention hall, while translation supported members joining from outside the US.
Cvent's regional conference series travels across Asia Pacific and Europe, meeting each local events community where it is. Wordly supported the series so each audience, from Singapore to Sydney to Frankfurt, could take part in the languages that matter in their market.
The event ends, but the content does not have to. Everything spoken on stage can become material you keep using, in every language your audience needs.
After a Wordly-supported session, organizers and attendees can access full transcripts in both the original and translated languages, along with AI summaries that capture the key takeaways. That makes it easy to share knowledge with people who could not attend, brief stakeholders quickly, and repurpose session content for communications, training, and follow-up.
Wordly extends live sessions into finished multilingual video. With Voice Transcripts, the translated audio generated during a live session can be fed straight into any video editor to add dubbed audio and subtitles in dozens of languages, without studios, voice actors, or complex post-production. A keynote or breakout recorded once can become on-demand video for audiences who could not attend live, or who prefer to watch in their own language, in minutes rather than weeks.
The value of an event lives on when its content stays organized and reusable. Wordly gives you one place to manage sessions, transcripts, glossaries, and access, so the assets from every event are easy to find, share, and carry into the next one. Over time, your events stop being one-off productions and start building a growing, multilingual content library.
Handling live audio, transcripts, and attendee access at scale means meeting a high bar for security and privacy, and Wordly is built to clear it. The platform is certified and compliant across the standards that enterprise and public-sector organizations require:
For planners, that means you can bring Wordly into regulated industries, government programs, and enterprise procurement with the documentation and safeguards those environments demand, without adding risk to your event.
The event content lifecycle is the full arc of an event's content across three phases: planning and preparation before the event, the live experience during the event, and the transcripts, summaries, and video created afterward.
Yes. Wordly works across all three formats. In-person attendees follow along on their own devices, and for virtual and hybrid events Wordly integrates with major conferencing platforms so remote and in-room attendees get the same live translation and captions.
Wordly supports dozens of languages in a single session, and each attendee chooses the language they want to follow along in. It also handles multilingual speakers and can switch the input language automatically as a session moves between presenters.
There are no booths, headsets, or receivers to source or ship. In-person attendees follow live translation and captions on their own devices, which keeps setup simple even for large events.
Yes. Live captions display in real time and can be shown in each attendee's language, making sessions accessible to attendees who are deaf or hard of hearing and easier to follow for anyone in a loud or crowded room.
You can access full transcripts in the original and translated languages, AI summaries of the key takeaways, and multilingual video with dubbed audio and subtitles. That lets you share sessions with people who could not attend and repurpose content for training, communications, and on-demand viewing.
Wordly's customizable glossary uses boost, block, and replace controls so you can prioritize, protect, or swap specific terms. That keeps product names, acronyms, executive names, and technical vocabulary consistent across every language, and glossaries can be shared and reused across events.
Wordly support is available 24/7, so you are covered in any time zone and at any point in your setup. For large and flagship events, on-site support can be arranged so a Wordly specialist is present to manage setup and monitor sessions live.
Yes. Wordly meets enterprise and public-sector requirements, with ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, and VPAT coverage, so it can be adopted in regulated industries and government programs with the documentation those environments require.
Language access is not a single feature you attach to event day. It runs through everything: the way you prepare, the experience you deliver live, and the content you create afterward. Wordly covers all three in one platform, so a global audience can take part before, during, and after your event, and so every session keeps working long after the room clears.
