New Wordly Product Review by Skift Meetings — Read Review
There are thousands of local government organizations across the United States that rely on live (in-person and virtual) meetings to update residents on government activities and provide them with a voice in the conversation. While many residents speak English, there is a large percentage of people where English is not their native and preferred language. Many local governments have tried providing human interpreters to address this issue, but that solution is too expensive and time-consuming for most organizations to implement.
Wordly has solved this problem with our AI-powered real-time translation solution. Now you can address the multilingual challenge for town hall meetings, city council meetings, or any other events where the attendees speak multiple languages.
The Wordly platform can be deployed quickly with no special IT implementation. Residents can join the meeting using their personal device and select from over dozens of languages - either audio or caption output. The Wordly solution works at both in-person and virtual events as well as webinars.
Wordly launched in 2019 and quickly made a big impact on the meetings and events market. Our easy to use, highly affordable real-time translation solution enabled business, associations, and a wide range of other organizations to make their sessions more inclusive and engaging. We engineered our solution to provide high quality translations - instantly scale to tens of thousands of users - and be seamless for attendees to use. This has enabled us to pass the 2 million user milestone in four years.
Wordly works with a wide range of government entities ranging from city councils to school boards to federal agencies.
