Real-Time Interpretation in Microsoft Teams & Zoom: How It Works

Seamless real-time interpretation is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity. From healthcare appointments to courtroom hearings and educational webinars, the ability to deliver multilingual conversations in real time across platforms like Microsoft Teams and Zoom has become critical. Ad Astra understands this shift, and that’s why we developed AdAstraConnect, our comprehensive interpreter scheduling and delivery platform.
Whether you're a hospital, law firm, public agency, or enterprise team, AdAstraConnect enables instant access to qualified interpreters for your Microsoft Teams or Zoom meetings. Here's how it works, and why it’s changing the game for language access.
Seamless Integration with Microsoft Teams & Zoom
AdAstraConnect is built to work where you work. Instead of requiring users to switch to a new platform or install complicated add-ons, our solution allows clients to schedule or request interpretation directly within their preferred video conferencing platform.
-
Schedule in advance: Set up your interpreted sessions within Teams or Zoom meetings using Ad Astra Connect’s scheduling tools.
-
Real-time on-demand: Need an interpreter on the spot? Just use the on-demand feature and get connected in seconds.
-
No user training required: Both parties remain on familiar platforms—our interpreters join and support your call without disrupting workflow.
What Makes Ad Astra Connect Different?
Unlike generic tools or DIY solutions, AdAstraConnect isn’t just a directory of interpreters—it’s a complete interpreter management software designed for organisations that need secure, professional, and trackable interpretation sessions.

Easy Interpreter Scheduling: Match and assign interpreters based on availability, language, qualifications, and even industry-specific needs (medical, legal, etc.) with simple steps.
-
HIPAA-Compliant & GDPR-Aligned: Ensures all remote interpreting services, especially for hospitals and law firms, are conducted with full regulatory compliance.
-
Supports Multiple Modes: VRI, OPI, In-Person: Need video remote interpreting (VRI)? Prefer over-the-phone interpretation (OPI)? Ad Astra Connect allows you to manage all in one place.
-
Smart Reporting & Session Logs: Gain insights on interpreter performance, attendance, language trends, and fulfilment rates—all available via dashboards.
Real-Time Language Support – Made Human
Our remote interpreting platform doesn’t rely solely on automation. Every session is supported by qualified, human interpreters. Whether it’s English to Spanish translation, sign language, or multilingual support, your participants get clarity, empathy, and professional communication every time.
And when it comes to sensitive fields like healthcare interpretation or legal proceedings, this human touch makes all the difference.
Who Is This For?
Our integrated interpretation solution is ideal for:
-
Hospitals & Clinics: Where video remote interpreting services support patient access, even in emergency or short-notice scenarios.
-
Law Firms & Courts: Where interpreter scheduling needs to be fast, accurate, and legally compliant, especially for multilingual depositions or hearings.
