Communication access, simplified
Need to use video conferencing? We got your back.
As work, school, and social life move more online, video conferencing has become essential. But for Deaf and hard-of-hearing people, it’s not always accessible or Deaf-friendly. That’s where Convo VRS comes in. Our app makes it easy to connect with our champ interpreters while using your favorite video-conferencing platforms—so you’re always part of the conversation.
And now, it gets even better.
We’ve introduced a new way to connect with interpreters, directly inside Zoom.
NEW FEATURE UPDATE: Use Convo directly in Zoom app
Now, with Convo for Zoom, you can have interpreters right inside your Zoom meeting. No more juggling windows, dialing in, or complicated workarounds.
This new feature works directly within the Zoom app and gives interpreters full access to your meeting— including participants, screen shares, chat, and reactions—all in one window.
Seamless and easy No scheduling needed 100% covered by the FCC for Convo VRS users

But we know that in some situations, you may prefer to keep the interpreter separate—whether for privacy, focus, or personal comfort. That option is still available and just as easy to use for your webinars or large meetings.
Prefer to keep the interpreter separated from the video-conferencing platform? That's fine! Here's how:

Frequently Asked Questions:
What’s the difference between Convo + Zoom and Convo for Zoom?
Both let you use Convo interpreters with Zoom but Convo for Zoom is fully integrated. Instead of dialing in separately, your Convo interpreter appears directly in Zoom. No more switching windows. It’s a smoother and more visual experience for everyone.
Are we limited to using Zoom with Convo interpreters or can other meeting platforms be used?
You can use Convo interpreters on any available meeting platform that has an audio dial-in number. We recommend Zoom because of their optimal user experience.
Is using Convo VRS with a video conferencing platform free?
Like TRS calls, VRS is free to the caller. Convo and other VRS providers are compensated for their costs from the Interstate TRS Fund, which the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) oversees.
Do we need to schedule an appointment to use Convo VRS for our video conference?
No appointment is needed! You can call from the Convo app at your meeting’s start time.
