How does it work?
Interpreting platform
The interpreters are discreetly present at your meeting or event to listen to what is being said and interpret ‘side-by-side’, on a fully equipped and video-based RSI platform, where they have a professional virtual interpreting booth, where they can see each other and work together as a team.
Listening app
The listeners listen to the simultaneous interpretation through a user-friendly listening app on their smartphone or tablet. This fully customisable listening app can also be opened on a PC or laptop via a listening URL, a desktop listening app for windows, a browser extension or directly in MS Teams via the integrated cAPPisco listening app.
Advantages?
Interpreters hear and see one another
VIP (Video-based Interpreting Platform)
Interpreters do not only have the audio channels or additional devices to communicate amongst themselves during their assignment, but they can also communicate with each other visually, both in the lounge and in the individual booth, and work together as a team effectively. This allows, among other things, the crucial ‘handover’ to proceed smoothly and comfortably.
Lounge
Exclusive meeting place for interpreters
On this RSI platform, as an interpreter you enter the lounge where you immediately meet all colleagues of the team; you can see everyone there and talk to each other.
From there you are led to a virtual booth, where you can see your boothmate and chat with him/her without disturbing the meeting participants.
The lounge is also the place where interpreters can meet each other and have a chat during shared and individual breaks.
Can be combined with a platform of your choice.
Side-by-side
cAPPisco can be combined with ALL web conferencing platforms.
The client can therefore hold meeting on the web conferencing platform of their choice (Webex, MS Teams, Zoom, Google Meet, etc.).
After all, this RSI platform works ‘side-by-side’. That means that the interpreters are only present in the client’s virtual meeting room (without a camera and microphone) to hear what is being said in the meeting room. Subsequently they interpret on their own cAPPisco interpreting platform.
Clients listen to the simultaneous interpretation via an extremely user-friendly listening app.
The advantage is that the interpreters, as discrete participants, are present at the client’s meeting and can see anything that the participants can see on the screen, so they have the same meeting ‘experience’ as the other participants. In addition, thanks to cAPPisco, they have a fully-fledged RSI platform on which they can comfortably interpret and communicate with other interpreters in the team, without disturbing the meeting participants.
Bring your own booth
BYOB
cAPPisco is a ‘BYOB’-application (Bring your Own Booth); interpreters can offer their virtual booth(s) to clients themselves. Technical support is possible, if desired, but not indispensable. The interpreters access the virtual hub (the RSI platform) via a link and the listeners receive an access code to listen to the simultaneous interpretation via the cAPPisco app.
Customisable
Add your own logo
Both the cAPPisco interpreting platform and the listening app are fully customisable with a logo of your choice. An individual interpreter, a recruiting interpreter or an interpreting agency can change the default style of the application to taste. In this way you can cultivate your personal relationship with the end customer and promote yourself with your own logo or that of your end customer.
