Remote and on-site interpretation in more than 150 languages. We arrange the interpreters, the equipment and the sound, so your guests listen in their own language.
We reply with a written quote within one business day.
Good evening, and welcome. Tonight we celebrate twenty years of partnership between our two organizations.
皆さま、こんばんは。ようこそお越しくださいました。今夜は、両団体の20年にわたるパートナーシップを祝う夜です。
Buenas noches y bienvenidos. Esta noche celebramos veinte años de colaboración entre nuestras dos organizaciones.
From a one-hour call to a long-term on-site project. Tell us what you are planning and we will suggest the right set-up.
Simultaneous interpretation for conferences, launches and ceremonies. We set up our interpretation kit at your venue, interpreters work remotely and guests listen on receivers.
An interpreter joins your Zoom, Teams or other online meeting. Booked by the hour, from a single hour.
An interpreter at your side in face-to-face meetings, site visits and dinners, mostly consecutive and with no equipment, anywhere in Japan.
Interpreters assigned for weeks or months, for example to construction for large events or as on-site interpreting staff at international events such as the Olympics. The same interpreters stay with your site, your team and your vocabulary.
We have a compact kit for the interpretation you need at your events. We send it to your venue, and our interpreters connect remotely: they see the room, hear the speakers clearly and interpret live. Your guests listen on receivers, and we set everything up for you.
Everything needed for interpretation, packed into one compact kit, delivered to your venue and set up by us.
They see the room on screen, hear the speakers clearly and interpret as they speak. We handle the connection and the sound check on the day.
Everyone in the room hears the interpretation in their own language on a light receiver.
No booth to build, and no travel or hotel costs for the interpreters.
The kit fits on a small table, so it works in meeting rooms, galleries and pavilions.
Interpreters can join from anywhere, so we choose the best people for your topic and languages.
Hybrid events too. The same interpretation can also reach participants joining online.
The choice mostly depends on whether you have an audience and how much time the programme can give to interpretation.
| Compare | Simultaneous | Consecutive |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Conferences, panels, ceremonies, larger online meetings | Meetings, negotiations, site visits, dinners, interviews |
| Programme length | Normal length | Each speech takes about twice as long |
| Interpreters | Two per language | One for most meetings |
| Equipment | Receivers for the audience, or a language channel in an online meeting | None |
| Remote possible | Yes, interpreters can work from anywhere | Yes, for online meetings |
The request form takes about three minutes: what kind of event or meeting, the languages, the date and the place.
Within one business day, often with two options so you can compare.
We arrange your interpreters and the set-up, brief them with your materials and test the sound.
Your guests listen in their own language, and a coordinator stays reachable throughout.
Since 2017 we have delivered more than 10,000 interpreting sessions for over 900 corporate clients.
We work with leading interpreters worldwide, including simultaneous interpreters with long experience at international conferences and large events. For each job we choose the interpreter who best fits the subject.
The Oyraa network of more than 3,000 interpreters covers common and rare languages, several languages at one event, and pairs that do not involve Japanese.
Beyond interpreters for events and meetings, the Oyraa app connects you directly with a professional interpreter on your phone, whenever you need one.
In simultaneous interpretation, interpreters speak at the same time as the speaker, from a booth or remotely, and the audience listens through receivers or a language channel. It needs a team of two and suits conferences, panels and anything with an audience. In consecutive interpretation, the speaker pauses every few sentences and the interpreter then renders what was said. It needs no equipment and suits meetings, site visits and dinners, but each speech takes roughly twice as long.
We send a compact interpretation kit to your venue and set it up. Our interpreters connect remotely, see the room, hear the speakers clearly and interpret live, and your guests listen on receivers. We test everything before the doors open.
Not with a remote set-up. The interpreters work from their own professional set-up, and in the room you only need a transmitter and receivers. For very large multi-day conferences we can still install a booth.
We test the audio path and the connection before the event, and for important events we run a back-up connection. A technician stays with the equipment during the event.
Yes. Online meetings in Zoom, Teams or similar tools are booked by the hour. For weekly meetings or a series of negotiations we keep the same interpreter where possible, so they learn your people, your product and your vocabulary.
Yes. Face-to-face meetings, factory tours, receptions and dinners are a large part of our work, including VIP and protocol settings. We cover venues across Japan and arrange the interpreter's travel; travel costs are included in your quote.
From a few weeks to many months, including full-time assignments five days a week. If an interpreter is ill or on leave, we arrange a replacement from our roster and brief them on your site and vocabulary, so the work continues.
Two to four weeks ahead is comfortable for most events and meetings. For multi-day conferences, rare languages or busy periods such as a large expo, book six to eight weeks ahead. We often staff requests within a few days, so ask even if your date is close.
Yes. With our partner sound engineers we supply transmitters, receivers, interpreter consoles and booths, and we run the sound on the day. If your venue already has equipment, we work with it.
More than 150 languages through the Oyraa network of over 3,000 interpreters, including pairs without Japanese, such as French and English, and several languages at the same event.
We match interpreters by subject experience, share their profiles before you confirm, and brief them with your slides, scripts and glossary. For simultaneous work we run a sound and connection check before the event starts.
Every interpreter works under a written contract with confidentiality obligations. We sign your NDA on request and share materials only with the interpreters assigned to you.
We invoice in Japanese yen, payable by bank transfer, and work with organizations in Japan and overseas. First-time clients may be asked to pay in advance. Long-term assignments are invoiced monthly. Cancellations or date changes are charged at 30% from five to four business days before, 50% from three to two business days before, and 100% on the day before or the day itself.
Tell us the date, the languages and the format. We reply with a written quote within one business day.
