Make City Council Meetings More Inclusive

Across the United States, thousands of local government organizations rely on live meetings—whether in-person, hybrid, or virtual—to update residents on government activities and give them a voice in the conversation. However, many residents speak languages other than English, making it challenging for local governments to engage everyone effectively. While some organizations have tried using human interpreters to bridge the language gap, this approach is often too costly and time-consuming to implement widely.

Wordly offers a cost-effective, scalable solution to this challenge with our AI-powered real-time translation platform. By providing seamless translation in dozens of languages, we enable local governments to address the multilingual needs of their communities at city council meetings, town halls, and other public events.
