Remote interpretingVRI Interpreting Platform

Video interpreting helps people to interact more personally than telephone interpreting, owing to the visual context and cues.

Our platform offers a smooth video call experience while eliminating travel time, mileage fees and wait time, issues often associated with face-to-face interpreting.

Getting started with LINK is easy, all you need is internet access and a mobile device or computer; there’s no expensive equipment to rent or purchase.

Our VRI services are also very useful in performing video interpreting sessions in sign language (AUSLAN – Australian sign language) for deaf audiences where a visual signal is required.

Video interpreting is a great solution for many industries. From business to healthcare to immigration, VRI provides a unique opportunity to connect your clients and community.

What our clients say

I just wanted to again thank you and your company for your willingness to be involved in such a small community based project in the flexible and positive way you have.

If you have the opportunity to pass on my personal thanks to those translators involved I would appreciate it. We hope that this will be a starting point for projects such as this to provide a wider array of assistance to people from all CALD backgrounds and they have contributed greatly to that cause.

I will promote your company at every opportunity and have taken action to ensure outstanding monies will be paid directly.

David Browning, Community Development Manager, Life Transitions Incorporated

Vee and her team were professional, accommodating and delivered an excellent level of service. The brief they took was tight and the process of peer review of all translations was clear and added real value and confidence. An excellent partner.

Leon McCormack, Insync surveys

I just wanted to pass on my appreciation for the interpreting services provided by Angela.

Angela’s professionalism greatly assisted the courts in a serious sexual crime which resulted in the committing to trial of a sex offender. Angela developed a rapport with the victim which enabled the victim to give her evidence in this difficult matter. I have no hesitation in recommending Angela for any future interpreting services. Angela certainly made my job easier during the court processes with a number of Korean witnesses.

Thanks again

Craig Stokes, Surfers Paradise CIB, Queensland Police Service

Hi Joanna,

I have been asked to contact you in regards to our function held on Sunday night. Both Tony & our Executive Director for Australia, Chris Thoroughgood, were very impressed with Mr Sun, he has done an excellent job interpreting for our valued guests from China, and we would like to let you know that we would have no hesitation in using his services again in the future or recommending him to any of our associates.

Could you kindly pass on our appreciation and thanks to him also.

Thanks again for your help in sourcing Mr Sun for our event.

Kind Regards

Nicole Kowalczuk, Noble Resources International Australia Pty Ltd

Hi Veerle,

We have just returned from China.

I wanted to thank you for your prompt and professional manner in which you translated our collateral and returned it via email for printing. Our clients were very impressed with the translation and the effort gone into them.

I will certainly recommend your services to other business contacts and if the opportunity arises, we will not hesitate to use your services again.

Tracey Lamont, Account Manager. Impact Engineering

Our manager was impressed by the professionalism and level of service offered by two of your interpreters at the APREC conference in the Gold Coast and we are now looking for interpreters for upcoming meetings in Qatar. My colleague Jenna, from BDO Brisbane, has very kindly forwarded me your contact details.

Stephanie Garcia Florez, BDO – Brussels Worldwide Services

We use this company mainly for the transcreation of our marketing material, which can be quite complex with mining and technical terms. On the whole, we have been very happy with the quality of their work. They readily meet our, at times, urgent deadlines and are always ready to help with any questions we might have. We continue to use their services and we highly recommend Absolute Translations.

Virginia Aquilizan, Deswik Mining

Absolute translations provided a translation of over 20 different documents into 4 different languages. They did it within agreed timelines and the quality was excellent. I was especially impressed with how they maintained the formatting of the document design as some of the design features were tricky to edit.

Justine Chittick, Nufarm

Thank you so much for providing your test translation. The feedback from our Chinese testers was that it was the best translation amongst three. Apparently, the translation demonstrated a good understanding of geological terms and overall content. Loyal to the English original, with good sentence flow. I will be recommending you for the next publication and any other products requiring Chinese translation. I look forward to contacting you for the next project.

Chantelle Farrar, Geoscience Australia

We just wanted to say a very big thank you for your efforts in sourcing a suitable translator and providing excellent service.

So often we get used to dealing with mediocrity but dealing with you and Absolute Translations was a pleasure. It was no easy task what we presented you with given the technical complexity and specific requirements for our project, but you delivered.

Vaughan Geldenhaus, AECOM

Video Remote Interpreting FAQs

What is VRI or video remote interpreting?

Video interpreting involves using video technology to connect users with interpreters remotely, much like a video conference. You could use Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, or our very own platform LINK.

This type of interpreting is particularly valuable for individuals who are located remotely and who require language support in settings such as healthcare, legal, education, immigration and business.

Video interpreting is also valuable when rare languages and dialects are concerned. Interpreters for those language might live far away and onsite assistance might therefore be unpractical and costly. Video interpreting is a great alternative to onsite interpreting because it still offers the visual cues during interpreting, which are important to the interpreter for understanding a message.

In Australia, Absolute Translations has been providing video interpreting services with our LINK platform, but also on other online meeting platforms such as described above. Our video interpreting software is a safe and dependable option for organisations and people that need translation services in a variety of languages.

Our LINK software for video interpreting has an intuitive user interface that enables smooth communication between the client and the interpreter.

Contact us to learn more!

Can I schedule VRI sessions in advance or request on-demand services?

One of the biggest advantages of our subscription-based platform is that our users can pre-schedule a VRI session or acquire support on-demand. We recognise that our clients may have unique needs, so having both options allows us to provide as much flexibility as possible!

In case a user wants to schedule a VRI session, all the user needs to do is boot up the app, input the target language, and find the appropriate interpreter who’s available on his or her preferred date and time.

Are your interpreters certified and experienced in their fields?

Yes, all our Australian-based interpreters are NAATI certified and experienced in their field.

However, in countries such as the United States, one should note that certification is limited for medical and court interpreters. Given that interpreters serve in hundreds of languages, formal certification is not available for all language pairs.

With that said, it’s important to know that just because an interpreter isn’t certified doesn’t mean that he or she is unqualified. Our specialised interpreters meet the same professional and training requirements that are required of certified interpreters. Rest assured that our interpreters will provide timely, relevant, and accurate interpretations whenever they engage with you.

Can VRI be used for sign language interpretation?

Yes, VRI can be used to deliver sign language intepretation services. We offer video interpreting services for sign language interpretation. Whether it’s for a legal hearing or an educational seminar, our video interpreting service enables Deaf or Hard of hearing individuals to participate in various settings

What languages are available?

Based on the information from our Interpreter Hub, our vast network comprises more than 17,000 proficient interpreters who cover a wide spectrum of over 300 languages spoken worldwide. 

This extensive network enables Absolute Translations to ensure a reliable connection whenever on-demand calls are made through our platform. With a subscription, rest assured that you’ll have language support at any time you require it! 

What is the cost of Video Interpreting?

Video Interpreting is one of the most economic and cheapest interpreting options available for people or corporations wishing to save money.

There is no subscription fee and the video interpreting fee varies based on the number of minutes utilised and the languages that need to be provided. Travel costs and interpreter fees associated with on-site interpreting services are not a concern with remote interpretation. This makes using remote interpreting for organisations or individuals that need to communicate in many languages a popular and useful option.

Is video interpreting confidential and secure?

Yes, VRI is secure. Video interpreters are trained to prioritise confidentiality and discretion whenever they’re interacting with clients. Moreover, they’re required to adhere to a strict set of regulations such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the AUSIT Code of Ethics to ensure that sensitive information is kept confidential at all times.

All video interpreters in our global Interpreter Hub are required to comply with a Code of Conduct so rest assured that any information you provide will be kept confidential!

Is video interpreting suitable for legal, medical, or business situations?

Yes, VRI is suitable for all mentioned settings and other scenarios with multilingual participants. Whether it’s a legal consultation, a medical emergency, or an important business meeting, video interpreting is an incredibly versatile language solution that can pave the way for effective communication.

How can I request more information?
