Traditional phone and video services charge by the minute, around $2.95 per minute (LanguageLine GSA catalog pricing, 2023). Opalite is a flat, predictable rate instead: customers save over 50% compared to traditional interpretation services, while improving availability and consistency.

All 150+ of Opalite's languages and dialects, including Spanish, Chinese, and Tagalog, are available across Phoenix in real time, on the devices care teams already carry. It's validated head-to-head against certified interpreters and designed to support Section 1557 obligations. Coverage includes the rare dialects hardest to staff human interpreters for, available instantly at any hour.
