AI Translation Saves Taxpayers $30M as Government and Education Adoption Surges 5x
The Californer/10346312

LOS ALTOS, Calif. - Californer -- Wordly, the pioneer in real-time AI translation and captioning, today announced that public sector organizations using its platform have saved taxpayers more than $30 million in interpretation costs, as adoption across state, local government, and education has increased 5x over the past 24 months.

The savings come as public agencies face continued pressure from rising operational costs across nearly every category - including staffing, services, and compliance-driven requirements - forcing governments to find more efficient ways to deliver multilingual communication without reducing access to public services.

"Public sector agencies are under pressure to expand language access while being responsible stewards of taxpayer dollars," said Lakshman Rathnam, Founder & CEO of Wordly. "That's driving a clear shift in procurement priorities toward solutions that reduce costs, expand access, and deliver measurable outcomes. Our 5x growth in the public sector reflects that shift."

Procurement Shifts Toward Measurable ROI
A key driver of adoption is the ability to quantify cost savings before deployment. Using Wordly's ROI Calculator (https://wordly.ai/roi-calculator), agencies can model translation costs based on actual usage, comparing traditional interpretation line items directly against AI-driven alternatives. This enables procurement teams to justify investments, ensuring that language access programs are both compliant and fiscally responsible in a broader high-cost environment.

Public Sector Adoption Accelerates
Adoption has been particularly strong among state and local governments and educational institutions, where rising costs and accessibility requirements intersect most directly. Across these sectors, Wordly supports use cases ranging from public meetings and hearings to classrooms, staff training, and community engagement.
