How does AI interpretation work for government agencies?
Staff call a resident, or talk with them at the counter, through AI Call. Each side speaks their own language and hears the other in theirs, with live subtitles. Agencies use it in place of an interpreter line, so residents are served on the first call.
It is part of AI Call interpretation services, the same real-time translation engine behind the AI Call app.

What changes when AI Call replaces the interpreter on your calls.
| Approach | Time to connect | Hours | Cost / minute | Records |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AI Call | None, AI is on the call | 24/7 | Per minute, well below human rates | Live subtitles, transcript and summary |
| Phone interpreter | Wait to connect, then a three-way call | Depends on roster and language | $1–5 (typical) | Interpreter notes, if any |
| Bilingual staff | Only if they are free | Their shifts | Salary and pay differentials | Whatever they write down |
Interpreter pricing reflects typical market rates for phone interpretation and varies by provider and language.

Does AI Call help with Title VI language access obligations?
It gives residents with limited English proficiency immediate access to services in their language, which supports a language access plan. It is not legal advice: review your obligations with your counsel.
Do residents need to download anything?
No. Staff call the resident’s normal phone number through AI Call, or use in-person mode on a phone or tablet at the counter. For video, a Call Link opens in the resident’s browser.
