English Interpreters and Translators

Provide instant English translation, live audio interpretation, and real-time captions across all your meetings and events without hiring human interpreters or renting expensive audio booths. Wordly works for in-person and virtual sessions, and you also get transcripts and summaries.

Real-Time Simultaneous Interpretation and English Translation

As global organizations expand across North America, Latin America, Europe, and Asia, the demand for bilingual language access is at an all-time high. An English interpreter and translator solution allows speakers and audience members to communicate fluently in real time, whether hosting an internal town hall, international conference, webinar, or training session.

Meetings and events are more engaging and inclusive when everyone speaks the same language, but that is not always possible. Human interpreters and translators are an option, but the high cost and logistical complexity limits their use to big budget events and large organizations. 

Wordly solves the multilingual collaboration challenge by providing an on-demand, AI-powered platform that delivers high quality simultaneous English audio interpretation, translated subtitles, and instant transcripts. Attendees simply scan a QR code or click a link on their smartphone, tablet, or laptop and select English audio or English captions. Wordly eliminates the high hourly per language fees, scheduling delays, and equipment headaches of traditional human interpreters.

Offering translation services is a great way to increase engagement, productivity, and inclusivity across your organization.

Why English Interpretation and Translation is Important

With millions of native English speakers worldwide, English is an important language for businesses and non-profits as well as government agencies, schools, and universities. In order to ensure your audience understand everything being presented, and you meet applicable language access compliance requirements, it is important to offer live bidirectional English interpretation (e.g., Spanish to English and English to Spanish; English to French and French to English; English to Japanese and Japanese to English, etc.). This leads to a much more inclusive and engaging experience for attendees at conferences, internal meetings, training sessions, and meetings where important information is presented. This benefits customers, employees, partners, and other important members of your community (parents, teachers, students, residents, etc.).

Key benefits of providing an English Interpreter:

  • Higher participation from English speakers – Make it easy for English-speaking attendees to join, understand, and contribute
  • More inclusive, accessible meetings – Everyone can listen or read in the language that works best for them
  • Consistent messaging – Presenters speak once; Wordly delivers the same message in English and dozens of other languages

The Wordly Advantage

Wordly uses multiple highly specialized AI models built specifically for language interpretation to ensure we deliver high quality translation and captions every time. We do not rely on generative AI models for translation or captions, and we do not use open models which would expose conversations to public LLMs. We constantly test which models provide the best results for each language and also optimize models for different use cases, including speech to text and text to speech. We have been building, refining, and scaling our AI platform since 2017 and have delivered over 1 billion minutes of live interpretation, proving our solution is very reliable and scalable.
