Remote Simultaneous Interpretation (RSI) in Brazil

What is RSI and how does it work

Remote Simultaneous Interpretation (RSI) uses the native language interpretation feature of videoconferencing platforms — Zoom Language Interpretation, Microsoft Teams Premium, Google Meet or Webex — to deliver real-time simultaneous interpretation without any physical equipment. The interpreter joins the meeting from a quiet location as a designated interpreter; participants select their language in the app and hear the interpretation in their earphones.

RSI is ideal for board meetings and executive sessions with up to 20 participants all in the same virtual meeting, quarterly PE reviews, bilateral negotiations and investor calls. No UHF receivers, no booth, no technical operator on-site — just the interpreter and the platform.

RSI mandates since 2019

lingo has held active monthly RSI mandates since 2019 with Macquarie (Solví), Carlyle (Tempo) and BlackRock (Clash/Mutant). In 5+ years and 60+ remote sessions, there have been zero documented quality or connectivity failures. RSI is not a compromise — for the right event format, it is the superior modality.

Setup takes 30 minutes before the event with the meeting host. Alex Barros tests the interpretation channel, confirms audio routing and is ready before the first participant joins. Quote via WhatsApp (+55 11 97534-6423).

Coverage, billing and logistics

lingo covers events across Brazil. In-person equipment (UHF system, booth, technical operator) is deployed from Guarulhos — freight is included in the quote for Greater São Paulo events and itemized separately for other cities. RSI via Zoom, Teams, Meet or Webex has no geographic constraint: the interpreter operates remotely, participants connect from anywhere in the world. Events in all 26 states and the Federal District are covered. International events — M&A roadshows in New York, investor meetings in London — are served via RSI with no additional interpreter travel cost.

Lingo Qi Interpretações LTDA (CNPJ 53.834.741/0001-34) issues nota fiscal eletrônica for all events — the formal Brazilian invoice required by corporate finance departments for supplier payments. Payment accepted by TED/PIX (Brazilian bank transfer) and international wire in BRL. For recurring mandates, a monthly invoice covers all events in the billing period. For new clients, a pro forma invoice accompanies the proposal; the final invoice is issued after event completion.

The quote includes: interpreter fee, equipment (if in-person), technical operator, transport and logistics, and any travel costs outside Greater São Paulo. No hidden fees. For multi-language events — English, Mandarin and Portuguese at a trilateral board, for example — lingo coordinates specialist interpreters for each channel at the same preparation standard.

How to hire — quote in 60 seconds

Contact lingo via WhatsApp (+55 11 97534-6423) or lingo.com.br/orcamento. Provide the date, language pair, modality and participant count. lingo returns a full proposal in 60 seconds: confirmed interpreter, equipment (if in-person), technical operator and logistics included with no hidden costs. Alex Barros requests the event deck and agenda 48 hours in advance to prepare the event-specific technical glossary — the foundation of terminological precision in real time.

For recurring mandates — quarterly or monthly boards — the glossary accumulates with each session. lingo has held active monthly mandates with Macquarie (Solví), Carlyle (Tempo) and BlackRock (Clash/Mutant) since 2019. No PE fund with fiduciary obligations to its LPs would rehire an interpreter who does not perform at the required level. Recurring mandates are the real credential in this profession.

For RSI via Zoom or Teams: 30-minute pre-event setup with the host, no physical equipment, no travel cost. For in-person events: UHF system installation 60–90 minutes before the event, soundproofed portable booth, technical operator on-site. For hybrid events: both modalities running in parallel.

The quote includes interpreter confirmation, equipment (if in-person), technical operator and logistics — no hidden costs. Alex Barros requests the event deck and agenda 48 hours before to prepare the event-specific technical glossary. For recurring mandates, the glossary accumulates over sessions, increasing precision progressively. Clients who hold monthly or quarterly boards with lingo — Macquarie, Carlyle, BlackRock, Burger King/RBI, 3corações × Strauss — return because the quality is consistent and the glossary is already built. New clients receive the same glossary preparation from their event materials.

Additional information for international clients: lingo covers all major corporate venues in São Paulo (Faria Lima, Paulista, WTC São Paulo, Grand Hyatt, Transamerica Expo Center, Expo Center Norte, Frei Caneca Convention Center) and delivers equipment to any city in Brazil with freight included in the quote. For remote RSI events, the location is irrelevant — Alex Barros and lingo interpreters operate from anywhere. For events with multiple simultaneous language channels — for example, English, Mandarin and Portuguese at a trilateral board — lingo coordinates a team of lingo interpreters, one per channel, with the same preparation and glossary standard. The Zoom Language Interpretation channel supports up to 20 simultaneous interpreters, making any language combination technically feasible in a single event. Lingo Qi Interpretações LTDA (CNPJ 53.834.741/0001-34) is incorporated under Brazilian law, issues nota fiscal (Brazilian electronic invoice) for all events, and accepts payment by bank transfer (TED/PIX) or international wire in BRL. English-speaking and Spanish-speaking clients may conduct the entire contracting process in their language via WhatsApp or email.

Remote RSI — documented reliability since 2019

lingo has operated Remote Simultaneous Interpretation (RSI) mandates continuously since 2019 — monthly boards with Macquarie (Solví), Carlyle (Tempo) and BlackRock (Clash/Mutant), plus quarterly boards with Burger King / RBI and 3corações × Strauss Group. Across 5+ years and 60+ remote sessions, there have been zero documented quality or connectivity failures. This track record is not marketing copy — it is the observable consequence of the correct setup protocol: 30-minute pre-event technical check, backup audio routing, and a dedicated interpretation channel separate from the main meeting audio.

The RSI setup protocol at lingo: (1) Alex Barros or the lingo interpreter joins the Zoom or Teams meeting as a designated interpreter 30 minutes before the event starts. (2) The interpretation channel is activated by the meeting host — in Zoom: Settings → Language Interpretation → Enable; in Teams Premium: Interpretation settings in the meeting. (3) A test run confirms audio quality in both directions. (4) Participants select their preferred language in the app before the event starts. (5) During the event, the interpreter receives a feed of the speaker's audio and transmits the interpretation on the designated language channel. Participants can adjust the volume balance between the original audio and the interpretation using the slider in the Zoom/Teams interface.

Simultaneous interpretation across Brazil — national coverage

lingo covers events across Brazil. In-person equipment (UHF system, booth, technical operator) is deployed from Guarulhos to any destination — freight and travel are itemized in the quote. RSI via Zoom, Teams, Meet or Webex has no geographic constraint — the interpreter operates remotely from anywhere, and participants connect from anywhere in the world. Events in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Brasília, Belo Horizonte, Curitiba, Porto Alegre, Recife, Salvador, Manaus and all other state capitals are covered. International events — M&A roadshows in New York, investor meetings in London, regulatory hearings in Geneva — are served via RSI with no additional cost for the interpreter.

For events in cities outside Greater São Paulo, lingo recommends a lead time of 5–7 days for in-person events (to confirm equipment freight and logistics) and 48–72 hours for RSI events. For events requiring multiple simultaneous language channels — for example, English, Mandarin and Portuguese at a trilateral board — lingo coordinates a team of lingo interpreters, one per channel. The Zoom Language Interpretation channel supports up to 20 simultaneous interpreters, making any multi-language configuration technically feasible.
