Wordly is proud to announce we have won another industry award - the Skift Meetings Award for Most Innovative Event Technology Product. Wordly was recognized for making meetings and events more inclusive and engaging with AI. It is an honor to be recognized alongside other organizations who are revolutionizing the events industry like Destination Toronto, Marriott, and The Vendry.

The Skift Meetings Awards have been designed to celebrate the business events industry’s most respected and innovative suppliers. Discover the final results and meet the 2023 winners!

We won the award for our Live Translation solution which delivers AI Translation, AI Captioning, and AI Transcription all together in one comprehensive solution.

An excerpt from our winning award submission follows:

Wordly uses AI to deliver high quality, easy to implement, and affordable live translation into the 30 most common international business languages, making events more inclusive, engaging, and productive for everyone. Wordly is a comprehensive solution providing 4 products (translated audio, captions, subtitles, and transcripts) and supporting 5 event formats (in-person, virtual, webinar, hybrid, and video) through a secure cloud network.

Wordly 3.0 was introduced in early 2023 and added several game changing features – including Natural Sounding Voices to improve the audio experience; Customizable Glossaries to increase translation quality; Video Captioning to expand the use of on-demand content; Translated Transcripts to support the needs of global teams; and Developer APIs to enable easy integration with leading event management platforms like Cvent.

GLOBAL ADOPTION

Wordly has been used by over 800 global organizations across all industries - including technology, financial services, healthcare, local governments, and nonprofits. Common use cases include industry conferences, association events, non-profit fundraisers, customer webinars, corporate town halls, sales kickoff events, city council meetings, and church services.

Wordly is used both standalone, as well as alongside all major video conferencing and event management platforms including Cvent, Zoom, vFairs, 6Connex, Stova, and many more.

Wordly has been used by over 2 million attendees - at over 50,000 sessions - for over 300 million minutes.

We deployed our first AI event translation solution in 2019, long before anybody heard of Chat GPT. We have continuously enhanced our product based on customer feedback and provide the most innovative event tech product in the industry.
