Babelverse is a company that aims to bridge language barriers by providing an on-demand interpretation service using Twilio's communication platform. The co-founders, Mayel de Borniol and Josef Dunne, were inspired to build the service after experiencing difficulties with language barriers while traveling abroad. They use Twilio to power calls between customers and interpreters, as well as text updates, and currently offer interpretation in over 155 languages. Babelverse's goal is to provide a human connection by making communication more accessible, and they are working on providing an API for developers to integrate their services into web apps. The company believes that standardization and interoperability are crucial for achieving this goal, and they aim to eliminate the language barrier by offering readily accessible interpretation services.
