Limited English Proficiency Drives Innovation
The U.S. Census bureau reports that over 350 languages are spoken in U.S. homes. That’s why on-demand interpretation services like Effectiff’s are evolving rapidly.
In many cases, United States laws require interpreters for people who have limited English proficiency (LEP) or who don’t speak English at all.
Having family members help out isn’t always possible or allowed.
The laws apply to hospitals, nursing homes, universities, local governments and other organizations that receive federal assistance.
It’s easy for organizations to comply when skilled interpreters are always within reach.

On-Site Interpretation
Sometimes it’s essential to have a person in the room to make the conversation go well. This is the way communication between languages has been done for centuries.
But today, you can quickly go from needing someone on site to having them there.
The Effectiff app lets you choose the language, the time, and the place. When your interpreter is on the way, you can follow their progress on a map, just as you do with a ride-sharing app.
Our 5,000 linguists specialize in diverse realms of health, law, technology, science, industry, business and defense. No matter what language you need, no matter what sector you represent, our linguists deliver.
Geared Up and Ready
Being ready for you means able to go where and when you need us. If your interpretation needs call for conference/interpreting equipment gear, we have your back.
Standard practice is to rent equipment as needed, but that can take time and be costly. We’ve got it all in-house.
From the sound-proof booths needed for big meetings to smaller units that can fit on a table top, we’re ready to go when you need us.
Nowadays, equipment is designed especially for on-site interpretation. Long-life batteries keep working when wall plugs are out of reach. The booths set up easily and quickly, even by one person. Our units can handle over 100 different language channels at once, all run by your personal technician.
The units transmit using infrared light, not radio, so the signals don’t go through walls. What’s said in your meeting stays in your meeting. Call us for your customized quote today!
We’re packed up and charged up. Just say where and when.
