A professional interpreter by phone or video, when you need one

On-Demand Interpreter Service

When a patient arrives, a caller is on the line, or a hearing starts early, there is no time to schedule. Speakr LLC connects you to a professional interpreter 24/7 by phone or video in 100+ languages.

No minimums and no long setup: get an account, save the access details, and call or connect whenever a language need comes up.

On-demand interpreter connected by phone

Phone or Video: Pick the Right Channel

Over-the-phone interpretation (OPI) is the fastest way to reach an interpreter and works anywhere with a phone signal. Video remote interpretation (VRI) adds visual context and is required for sign language. Most of our clients use both: OPI for quick calls and front-desk questions, VRI for appointments, consultations and ASL.
