Human interpreters in the room
Cleared linguists are scarce, expensive and booked weeks ahead. Every extra language is another person who hears everything.
Sensitive meetings already cross languages. Until now, every answer had a leak.
Commercial translation services
Fast and cheap — and not deployable here. The meeting's audio goes to a third party, outside the facility and often outside the jurisdiction.
Interpretation with the posture of your own infrastructure
No linguist in the room. No packet off the site. One box you own, inspect and switch off.
WHAT LEAVES THE FACILITY
0
bytes of meeting audio, text or metadata.
We measured it. Then we measured it again, a different way.
Starting up, idling and running a full meeting with live speech in four languages, the application's processes made no connection to any address outside the PC, and looked up no outside name. Two independent witnesses: the operating system's connection table, and audit hooks inside every process the application starts.
VERIFY IT YOURSELF
Run a span port or host firewall log for the length of an acceptance meeting. Expected result: no outbound flow from the Ovvos Wasel processes.
Default on-premise profile. The application window is drawn by Microsoft Edge WebView2; Ovvos Wasel starts it with background services switched off, and in our measurement it made no outbound connection. Windows Update and other software on the PC stay under your own IT policy.
DATA HANDLING
Every artefact the system touches, where it lives, and how long it survives.
| ARTEFACT | WHERE IT LIVES | LIFETIME | DEFAULT |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meeting audio | Memory on the room PC | Seconds | Never written to disk — no setting exists that would |
| Recognised text | Memory on the room PC | One sentence | Discarded once spoken |
| Interpreted audio | Room network → the chosen phone | Played once | Not recorded anywhere |
| Captions on a phone | That phone's browser, while open | Until close or meeting end | Not stored on the device |
| Transcript | Room PC memory, only if enabled | Operator-set | OFF |
| Operational logs | Room PC disk | Rotating | The length of each sentence — never its words |
Transcript retention, transcript export and meeting text in logs are three separate switches. Each is off by default and visible to the operator on the Privacy page.
Three doors into the system. Each has its own lock.
The listener page
Reachable only from the room network. A per-meeting PIN gates it — until it is accepted, the page offers nothing to choose. Each phone receives only the language its holder picked.
The operator console
Runs on the room PC inside the operator's Windows session. Access from other machines requires the administrator password — generated at installation, never kept in the shareable configuration.
The room display
Output only: the join address, the PIN and the languages running. The live transcript is off until an operator turns it on, and clears when the meeting ends.
Ending a meeting stops interpretation on every handset immediately. Anything not yet spoken is discarded, every phone drops the audio it was holding and says the meeting has ended. Outside a meeting, nothing is interpreted at all.
Your delegation follows every word. In their own language.
Bilateral and multilateral talks
A foreign delegation speaks over the video link; your officials hear it in Arabic.
Joint exercises and coordination
Partner nations brief in English; liaison officers follow in their own languages.
Ministerial and board meetings
One room, four languages, nobody waiting for a booth.
Classified briefings with an international participant
No third party hears the meeting — human or machine.
What your accreditation team receives before deployment.
- 01Network behaviour statement. Every port the product opens, every address it contacts. The second list is empty.
- 02Offline installation media. Software, language models and voices in one package. No download step, ever.
- 03On-site inspection. Your team observes installation and runs its own packet capture during acceptance.
- 04Patching on your terms. Windows updates come from Microsoft, through your own IT, under your existing policy.
We cannot reach your machine. We don't want to.
STEP 1
You open the door
With your own approved tool, at a time you choose.
STEP 2
Attended throughout
Your staff watch every action as it happens.
STEP 3
The door closes
End the session and the route is gone.
No inbound port. No vendor account. No log upload. No meeting content. Fully air-gapped rooms are supported by telephone with your operator at the keyboard, or by on-site visits under escort.
ACCURACY, STATED HONESTLY
Built for comprehension in the room.
On-premise means models sized for one machine in your building, not the largest in the world. Ovvos Wasel is for following a meeting in your own language. It is not a certified translation, a record of proceedings, or a substitute for a cleared interpreter where a binding rendering is required.
Glossary
Ranks, unit names and designations are fixed and never drift.
Expected languages
Naming who is in the room removes whole classes of misrecognition.
Good audio in
A line feed from the mixer beats any model upgrade.
Four loss counters
The operator sees exactly which stage lost a sentence, and what fixes it.
Questions accreditation teams ask.
Can it run in an air-gapped room?
Yes. It installs from offline media and needs no internet to install, start or run a meeting. Recognition, translation and speech all run on the room PC.
How do we verify nothing leaves the facility?
Run a span port or host firewall log for an acceptance meeting. Expected result: no outbound flow from the Ovvos Wasel processes. Our own method and results are in the Network Behaviour Statement.
Does the vendor need remote access?
No. There is no standing agent, vendor account or inbound port. Support happens through an attended session you open, by telephone, or on site under escort.
Does it connect to Teams or our conferencing tenant?
No. It listens to the room PC's sound output at the Windows audio layer. No app, bot, API key, OAuth consent or tenant approval is involved.
See it live, before anything is installed.
Bring your delegation to our office; your colleagues join from yours, over your usual platform, in their own language. Run your own agenda with your own terminology. Then: accreditation review, installation under your escort, acceptance testing.
