Volatia’s national contract provides translation services, interpretation management systems, and related products services via the GovMVMT Cooperative Agreement:
Phone Interpretation (OPI)
All you need is a phone and you can easily connect to an interpreter in any language within seconds. Once we’ve created an account for you, you will be given an access code that you can use to connect to an interpreter on-demand 24/7/365. For ease of access, download our mobile app and connect to an interpreter in a click of a button.
Video Interpreting (VRI)
Video interpreters help you capture non-verbal communications and are a great solution when serving individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing through sign language(s). Volatia has simplified access to video interpreters to a click of a button. In the top right-hand corner of this website, click login or simply download our mobile app in the apple or google stores.
Virtual Platform Interpreting (VPI)
Virtual Interpreting refers to interpreter services provided through a 3rd party application such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, etc. and thus require a scheduled appointment with the interpreter. Simply contact us to create a work order and provide us a link. This service has become a standard for conferences or large events that require virtual interpreters.
Simultanious Interpretation (STI)
Simultaneous interpretation is used in situations in which the interpreter and the person being interpreted speak simultaneously. When performed through a vertual platfrom, equipment fees and other event managment fees can be avoided. When the event is in-person, headphones, microphones, and a sound proof booth are necessary, allowing the interpreter to interpret and listen at the same time. This form of interpretation is generally used in conferences or large group settings.
Onsite Interpreting (OSI)
Onsite interpreting, also known as in-person or face-to-face interpreting, is when a language interpreter is scheduled to meet a client at a given location to bridge a language barrier. Volatia provides interpreters in-person in over 300 languages, including Sign Language(s). Schedule your next in-person interpreter with Volatia.
LEP Call-In Lines
Volatia’s technology empowers your Limited English Proficient (LEP) clients to access your services whenever they want. With an LEP Call-In line, your client will be able to connect to an interpreter of his or her native language first, and then connect to your staff.
Interpreter Managment Systems (terpX)
Unleash your team with terpX, the most user-friendly and comprehensive Interpreter management and scheduling platform. This proprietary technology is designed with purposeful automations for organizations that provide or manage interpreter services on demand.
Document Translation Solutions
