Wordly is an AI-powered platform for live translation and captioning at meetings and events. You feed it the speaker's audio, and attendees open a link on their own phone to read live captions — in the original language or translated into theirs — across dozens of languages, with no app install, account, or headset required. After the session it produces transcripts and summaries, and attendees can export their own takeaways in the language they followed. The company reports the platform has served more than six million people across over 120 countries and handled more than a billion minutes of live multilingual translation.
On October 27, 2026, Wordly added Audience Engagement, a layer on top of that caption stream. While a speaker is still talking, attendees can pin emoji reactions to specific sentences, mark key moments, and save personal notes — again with no accounts, logins, or special hardware. Because each reaction is tied to an individual sentence, organizers get real-time sentiment and can see which statements, topics, and quotes resonated most, compare engagement across sessions, and share results with speakers and sponsors. It follows other recent releases such as Silent Theater and Sponsor Logos.
Wordly is sold as event infrastructure rather than a monthly creator SaaS: pricing is built around prepaid hour packages used per event or across a year (its pricing page lists packages starting around a 10-hour block, usable in increments for up to twelve months), with the exact cost driven by hours, attendees, and languages. Confirm current numbers on wordly.ai/pricing, since they change.
The boundary to understand before building a content workflow on it: Wordly makes a live session accessible, multilingual, and now measurable, and it hands you a transcript and summary afterward. It writes no social post, cuts no vertical clip, adds no captions for a muted social feed, builds no carousel, quote graphic, blog, or newsletter, holds no brand voice across outputs, and publishes to no platform. Its job starts when the session begins and ends when the export is downloaded.
Wordly is built to maximize the audience that is physically (or virtually) in the room: everyone there, in whatever language they speak, follows along live and now tells you what landed. Its work finishes when the lights come up and the transcript is downloaded. The problem is that the event — the single most expensive piece of content most brands produce all quarter — then reaches no one else. A recording sitting in a drive, and a clean multilingual transcript sitting in an export, are an audience of zero until someone turns them into posts. That is the entire job of [Kompozy](/).
Wordly even hands Kompozy an ideal input: a clean, structured transcript of exactly what was said. Drop it into Quick Ingest and one event becomes a week of content in a single pass — captioned [Clipped Shorts](/glossary/clipped-short) reframed for every feed, brand-exact [Carousel Posts](/glossary/hyperframes) and quote graphics built through HyperFrames, a [blog article](/glossary/content-repurposing) and an email newsletter, and an avatar-narrated [Persona Short](/glossary/persona-shorts) that re-delivers a key point on camera with no re-filming. Every text format is governed by one [Persona Brief](/glossary/persona-brief) with banned-word filters, so a spoken session comes out in your brand's written voice rather than transcript-speak. Then [Autopilot](/glossary/autopilot) schedules and publishes the set across the eight social platforms plus blog and email behind a per-post review gate. Wordly owns the live, multilingual room; Kompozy turns that one-time event into an ongoing content presence everywhere the room was not.

It also produces post-event transcripts and summaries, and on October 27, 2026 it added Audience Engagement, a layer of live reactions and real-time sentiment on the caption stream.
Audience Engagement lets attendees pin emoji reactions to specific sentences, mark key moments, and save notes while a speaker talks — with no accounts or special hardware. Each reaction is tied to a sentence, so organizers see real-time sentiment and which statements, topics, and quotes resonated most, and can compare engagement across sessions.

No. Wordly delivers live multilingual captions, audience reactions, and a post-event transcript and summary, but it cuts no clips, writes no posts, and publishes to no platform. Turning the recording and transcript into captioned clips, carousels, a blog, and a newsletter — then publishing them — is a separate job a content engine like Kompozy handles.
