What is AI in-person interpretation?
On-site interpretation usually means booking an interpreter in advance, or calling an interpreter line and passing a phone back and forth. With AI Call, the interpreter is the phone or tablet on the desk: open in-person mode, and each person speaks their own language, hears the translation out loud and reads it on their half of the screen.
It is the in-person part of AI Call interpretation services, replacing the human interpreter at front desks, counters, field visits and home visits.
How it works
How an in-person conversation works
Four steps in the AI Call app.
- 1
Choose the two languages
Staff pick their language and the other person’s in AI Call, on a phone or tablet. AI Call remembers the pair for next time.
- 2
Open in-person mode
The screen splits in two and the other half turns to face the visitor, so each side reads their own language right side up.
- 3
Talk across the desk
Each person speaks naturally. AI Call says the translation out loud and shows it on that person’s half of the screen.
- 4
Keep the conversation moving
No second device and no typing. Hand the phone back and forth, or set the tablet on the counter between you.
Faster than booking an on-site interpreter
The same conversation, two ways.
Traditional on-site interpreter
- Book an on-site interpreter in advance, or call the interpreter line
- Wait for the interpreter to arrive or connect
- Pay for the booked time, often a minimum block for a short conversation
- Every sentence is relayed by the interpreter
AI Call
- Open in-person mode on a phone or tablet
- Each person speaks; AI Call translates out loud and on screen
- Start the moment the visitor walks up
No interpreter to schedule and no one else in the room.
What every in-person conversation includes
One phone, two sides
The split screen flips for the other person, so both of you read your own language.
Spoken and on screen
Every turn is said out loud and shown as text, so nothing is missed at a busy counter.
100+ languages
Any language a visitor walks in with, any hour the desk is open.
Works offline
On supported language pairs, in-person mode works without a connection, for basements, field and home visits.
Phone or tablet
The AI Call app on an iPhone, Android phone or tablet at the counter.
Nothing to install for the visitor
They simply talk to your device. No app, no account, no setup.
