Williams AV announces Convey – the world’s first real-time audio translation, open captioning and audio archiving system. Powered by Google’s artificial intelligence platform, Convey Audio eliminates the barriers of language with real-time translation with up to 94 percent accuracy depending on language. In addition to real-time translation, Convey provides accurate speech-to-text transcription and audio archiving of all events.
 
“Sometimes understanding requires more than just hearing,” says CEO and president, Rob Sheeley. “Sometimes it’s the language beings spoken. Sometimes it’s the words being said. We designed Convey to not only help people understand each other, but to make sure everyone feels included – no matter nationality or origin. And the fact that the technology is powered by Google means that every day their AI is learning new words, new tenses – it never gets sick, never takes a day off.”
 
Convey employs a simple iOS and Android app for easy system setup and control. By just clicking a QR code within the app brings up the option to choose half day or full day duration of service. Billing is handled via Google Play or Apple App Store for an easy, fast and secure transaction. Choose the presenter language, select the translated language, hit start, and speech will instantly begin translating, inscribing and archiving all content.
