Kudo has launched a Language Access Program to empower organisations, language service providers (LSPs), and communities to maintain inclusive, barrier-free communication.
Recent cuts in international aid and global program funding have left millions at risk of losing access to essential language services, significantly impacting communication across sectors. Recognising the critical role of LSPs in bridging linguistic divides, Kudo’s initiative directly supports their growth, resilience, and operational effectiveness:
- AI-Powered Starter Kit for LSPs: Kudo is equipping language service providers with advanced AI-driven starter kits, coupled with a robust onboarding process. This initiative enables LSPs to rapidly scale services, optimise efficiency, and meet growing demands despite resource constraints.
- Cost-Free Access for Impacted Organisations: Understanding the gravity of budget cuts faced by nonprofits, government agencies, and educational institutions, Kudo is providing free, limited-time access to its multilingual communication platform. This support ensures vital missions continue unhindered by language barriers.
- Enhanced Support for Existing Clients: Committed to continuity, Kudo is offering additional platform credits to its existing clients, safeguarding their capacity for seamless, uninterrupted multilingual communication.
“The world doesn’t stop communicating, and neither should you,” said Fardad Zabetian, CEO of Kudo. “The ability to communicate across multiple languages isn’t a luxury–it’s a necessity, that’s why at a time when language access is under threat, we are stepping up to ensure businesses, institutions, and communities can continue to connect, collaborate, and serve diverse audiences without barriers.”
