Language translation across industries

​In education, translation means better learning

Schools must provide translation for parents who would otherwise be excluded from their children’s educational experience due to language barriers. Translation Assistant uses translation software instantly putting critical school communications into parents’ native languages, eliminating a language barrier and including them in their students’ learning.

In healthcare, critical information translated in minutes

Hospitals, clinics and public health agencies (especially in metro areas) must communicate non-clinical notices and marketing materials to populations that speak a different language. For example, during the COVID pandemic, communication and updates have been needed quickly in a fast-changing situation. Translation Assistant translates — in real-time — notices and information in required languages, helping patients understand what’s available and where.

In retail, businesses can better reach their customers

Retail businesses are challenged in producing promotional materials in communities that speak a different language. Using Translation Assistant, a store can translate material into the native languages of its community, reaching new markets and better serving its customers.

In government, households in a variety of languages can be better served

Governmental agencies often provide information to constituencies that speak a variety of languages. Using Translation Assistant, employees in state and local government offices can translate any number of informative or instructional documents into a targeted language in a matter of minutes, helping them better serve their growing and changing communities.
