Body language and facial expressions that speak volumes
Video Remote Interpreting (VRI) operates in a similar way to Skypeâ„¢ or FaceTimeâ„¢, allowing you to visually converse with our interpreters who have a strong reputation amongst the interpreting community.
We believe that body language and facial expressions can further facilitate empathy and understanding – a key component our team focus on in emergency or sensitive situations.

Swift connection time
Speed of service is crucial in any industry, especially in a crisis or emergency scenario and sometimes the face-to-face element is also crucial. WordSynk Interpretation enables connection speeds of less than 3 minutes for video remote interpreting, enabling you to access the service on demand, as and when you need it.

Face-to-face delivery
We understand that in certain scenarios, such as during sensitive conversations, it is important to have the face-to-face interaction even if its virtual. With video remote interpreting, we break down the language and geographical barriers by connecting you to multilingual support, directly to your video-enabled device.

For deaf and hard of hearing individuals who communicate through British Sign Language (BSL), video remote interpreting offers an unbeatable alternative to onsite interpretation and provides an emergency solution in more urgent scenarios.
