Frequently Asked Questions

How is the RSI platform selected?
Platform and technical arrangements are proposed after the event brief is reviewed. Equipment and specialist personnel can be arranged subject to assignment requirements, partner availability and client confirmation.
What is the difference between RSI and on-site interpretation?
RSI uses a remote platform while attendees listen through the agreed access method. An on-site plan may require physical equipment at the venue. Equipment and specialist personnel can be arranged subject to assignment requirements, partner availability and client confirmation.
Do you support hybrid events?
Hybrid requests can be reviewed against the venue, platform, in-room equipment, remote audience and language channels. Equipment and specialist personnel can be arranged subject to assignment requirements, partner availability and client confirmation.
What are the bandwidth requirements?
Connectivity, audio and platform requirements depend on the selected setup. Any technical check, participants and acceptance criteria are confirmed in the written assignment scope.
What is Video Remote Interpretation (VRI)?
VRI is video-based remote interpretation. Whether video, audio-only or another mode is appropriate depends on the setting, participant needs and any venue requirements confirmed for the assignment.
Do you provide backup interpreters for long sessions?
Any proposed substitute is subject to availability, disclosed to the client, and approved before assignment.
Can RSI be used for court proceedings?
The court or tribunal decides whether remote interpretation is permitted and what eligibility or credential it requires. Obtain that rule from the forum before the assignment is confirmed.
How is audio quality maintained remotely?
Audio, connectivity, environment and testing requirements are agreed for the assignment. No performance outcome is guaranteed before the platform and participant setup are tested.
