Which interpreting service is better suited to my needs?

Not sure what kind of interpreting service is adapted to your situation? Here’s a quick round-up of the different possibilities that we offer: 

• Consecutive Interpreting means that the interpreter translates after the speaker has finished. The interpreter is close to the speaker, listens carefully and takes notes. When the speaker takes a break or finishes, the interpreter translates the entire message. Consecutive interpretation is generally used in depositions, court cases, educational activities, testimonies, short business meetings, press conferences, medical discussions and job interviews. 
• Simultaneous Interpreting is the ability to hear a message in one language while simultaneously interpreting into another language. Simultaneous interpreting is very demanding and usually requires the use of special equipment. Qualified interpreters typically work in pairs when providing simultaneous interpretation services, to maintain a high level of concentration. Simultaneous interpreting is mainly used in large meetings, conferences, speeches, seminars, exhibitions and other large gatherings.
• Simultaneous Remote Interpreting: RSI is basically Simultaneous Interpreting that significantly reduces costs and provides greater safety and adaptability as it does not require the physical presence of interpreters and equipment on-site. It works through cloud services and smart devices, ensuring a high-quality experience for participants. We offer simultaneous interpreting solutions for online meetings using WebEx, Zoom and other platforms.

How does Remote Simultaneous Interpreting work?

1. Speaker – the presenter speaks in one language. The speaker’s voice and image are transmitted live to an interpreter remotely, usually via an internet browser on a laptop or desktop computer.
2. Interpreter(s) – an interpreter listens and sees the speaker on a screen. Using high-quality headphones and microphone, they translate from the speaker's language into another language, in real time.
3. Remote Simultaneous Interpreting Platform (RSI) – the interpreter's speech is transferred to a cloud-based Simultaneous Remote Interpreting platform via laptop or desktop computer.
4. Audience – participants and/or representatives can connect to the Remote Simultaneous Interpreting platform via a computer or mobile device, viewing and listening to the speaker in their language of choice.

Why choose Remote Simultaneous Interpreting?
