Imagine you're a Spanish speaker in an English-language business meeting. As your colleagues discuss quarterly results, Hedy provides you with real-time insights in Spanish. You can ask Hedy to explain complex financial terms, and it responds in Spanish, ensuring you're always on the same page.

Or perhaps you're a Japanese student in an English-language lecture. Hedy listens to the professor and provides summaries and key points in Japanese, helping you grasp difficult concepts more easily.

I've been in meetings where I wished I could understand every nuance, every implication. With Hedy's multilingual support, we're leveling the playing field. Now, language proficiency doesn't have to limit your ability to be the brightest person in the room.
