Seven years ago, we launched Wordly with a conviction that language should never be a barrier to connection. We invented the live AI translation and captioning market — and we never looked back.

Today, as we celebrate our 7th anniversary, we're proud to share that the momentum behind that original vision has never been stronger. We've crossed milestones that once seemed impossibly distant, completed a rebrand that reflects who we've become, and are just getting started on what comes next.

A New Look Built for What's Ahead

Earlier this year, in February 2026, we unveiled the new Wordly brand. Our updated logo, redesigned website, and enterprise-class visual identity were more than a facelift — they were a statement about where we're going. As we've grown from a disruptive startup into the global standard for live AI-powered translation and captions, our brand needed to reflect that maturity.

The new Wordly is cleaner, bolder, and purpose-built for the enterprise organizations, nonprofits, governments, schools, and religious institutions we serve every day. The mission, of course, hasn't changed a bit.

The Numbers That Define This Moment

1 Billion Minutes — 0 Words Lost in Translation

This is the milestone that stops us in our tracks. Wordly has now powered 1 billion minutes of live AI translation and captioning — the equivalent of 150 billion spoken words delivered without a single one getting lost.

To put a billion minutes in perspective: it would take you 31 years just to count that high. In that same span of time, you could walk around the Earth 3,300 times, brew 200 million pots of coffee, or listen to Bohemian Rhapsody 166 million times. We think helping the world communicate across languages is a better use of that time.

6 Million Users. 5,000 Customers. 120 Countries.

Since we launched, Wordly has grown to serve 6 million users across 5,000 customer organizations in 120 countries. These aren't just numbers — they represent millions of conversations that happened because language was no longer a wall.

Where Wordly Is Being Used

One of the things we find most energizing is the sheer breadth of how Wordly is showing up in the world. Our top five industries — Corporate, Nonprofit, Government, Churches, and Education — reflect an incredibly diverse community of organizations that all share one thing: a commitment to reaching people in their own language.

Common use cases continue to grow: event keynotes, corporate town halls, staff trainings, city council meetings, and church services are now staples of how our customers run their most important gatherings.

But what truly excites us are the emerging use cases our customers are pioneering. We're now powering public safety alerts, off-broadway plays, guided tours, student tutoring sessions, and graduation commencements. These aren't use cases we predicted when we started — they're proof that when you remove language barriers, human creativity finds new ways to connect.

Thank You

None of this happens without the organizations who chose to trust Wordly from the early days, and without the new customers who join us every day. You are the reason 1 billion minutes of conversation could happen across 120 countries. You are the reason language is no longer the obstacle it once was.

Seven years in, we are more committed than ever to building the tools that make every meeting, every event, and every conversation more inclusive.

The best is still ahead. And we'd love for you to be part of it.
