"Convey Video is a transformational solution that changes the game in real-time video-based translation," said CEO and president of Williams AV, Brad Kautzer. "Utilizing leading-edge AI-based technology, Convey Video enhances communications across boundaries and languages. Whether it is enhancing comprehension in higher education, translation and recording in judicial, medical, and law enforcement, or improving global business communications effectiveness, Convey video does what no other solution can offer. Using the latest available technology integrated into one package, Williams AV offers solutions to meet a range of uses."

The Bottom Line: Convey Video can be integrated into an array of video environments with an easy language selection and set up using a keyboard, mouse, or touchscreen. Personalization can be set by an integrator and/or technology manager for language, text size, selectable 1-3 lines of text, color, background, and text location. Convey Video offers an alternative when live interpreters are not available or within the scope of budget and provides flexible monthly payment options to fit different application needs.
