Remote interpretation with Qonda.

The efficiency of remote interpretation.

Remote interpretation, also called video remote interpretation (VRI), ensures that clients around the world have unlimited access to qualified service and that cultural differences can be overcome. Through the use of video and audio services, it is possible for all participants to work on a common project regardless of time and place. This includes conferencing services as well as real-time interpretation services for companies in different markets. In combination with other technologies, remote interpretation can further improve the quality of remote interpretation.

Remote interpretation also offers users great advantages in terms of flexibility. Not only is it possible to translate several languages at the same time, but also to have different dialects covered in different regions and countries. This makes it possible to have more than a single person participate in a conversation, thus allowing for more variability in terms of the content that can be conveyed. In addition, interpreters can be recruited quickly and effectively (especially local ones), even in emergency situations or acute scheduling problems – which is more difficult with traditional interpreting.

In the global world, remote interpretation is becoming increasingly important. After all, companies in Europe alone lose over 100 billion in sales each year due to problems in communication caused by language barriers. Less than 5% of people speak very good English, which in turn would be the prerequisite for smooth communication. With our app, we have created a perfect solution for real-time remote interpretation. This makes your communication more effective and productive, decisions can be made quickly and without detours.

Our tool is compatible with all video conferencing systems. If you would like to produce a multilingual livestream of your conference or event, we offer you the appropriate player which you can integrate directly on your online event platforms, your homepage or on the intranet. Alternatively, you can set up a restream for your livestream and forward the stream directly to another streaming service such as YouTube, Vimeo, etc. with the appropriate interpretation.

What are the advantages of remote interpretation?

• The most obvious advantage is the cost saving compared to traditional face-to-face interpreting. The price saving is over 90% compared to face-to-face meetings, where you still need additional conference equipment for simultaneous interpreting.
• Conference interpreters from all over the world are simply connected.
• With our app or software, participants can listen to the translation via smartphone or browser.
• Easy access, as no software needs to be downloaded.
• Ready and usable at any time and immediately.
• It allows participants to communicate with each other without wasting time and overcome language barriers.

One of the main features of RSI or distance interpreting is its accessibility. Because of its great ability to establish contacts quickly, people from any part of the world can talk to each other. Access to the technology needed is also very simple and you can find everything you need – from a computer or laptop to a smartphone for online meetings.

What’s more, remote interpretation requires minimal preparation and advance work. Most people already have access to the technical tools (computer, tablet, etc.), but since no specially trained operator or on-site specialist is required, this saves time and money – neither room rental nor travel expenses are necessary – so it is easy to use professional conference interpreters.

In terms of quality control, remote interpretation offers even more advantages: Thanks to advanced technology, both organizers and interpreters can easily have their performance checked and documented.
