Who We Are

“Onscreeninterpeters was born through the initiative of a team of entrepreneurs from different countries. Due to our background in the mining and energy industries, we realized the importance of using remote interpretation services to connect with facilities in locations where it was not possible to hire on-site language interpreters.”

Get Started

After notifying us about the topic of your meeting, users will be sent an informative e-mail with call instructions and a password to enter the conference room at the scheduled date and time.
Once you enter the virtual conference room, your interpreting session will function exactly like on-site interpretation. The assigned interpreter goes over the conference rules and, if necessary, provides a cross-cultural overview. Our linguists operate with consecutive interpretation, which means they wait until the speaker expresses a complete sentence or paragraph.
The webconference time starts after the interpreter has briefed attendees on how to use the service. You will be informed when your session is coming to an end, allowing time for final conclusions.
Onscreeninterpreters does not provide webconference interpretation on demand; however, depending on the language pair, it may be possible to coordinate an interpreter within an hour or two. We only recommend this option only for simple conversations where technical terms or specific jargon is not essential.
Videoconferences give users capacity to demonstrate the facility, machinery, manufacturing process, verify the quality of products. Users can provide further explanations to help facilitate greater understanding. (A well-lit space is strongly recommended.)
