FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Language Services Associates, Inc. (LSA) and Lingolet, Inc. Announce Strategic Alliance to Revolutionize Language Services

March 25, 2025 – Language Services Associates, Inc. (LSA), a globally recognized leader in human interpretation, translation, and technology integration, and Lingolet, Inc., a pioneer in AI-driven language solutions, are proud to announce a strategic business alliance designed to enhance each other’s service offerings.

This collaboration brings together the strengths of both companies to provide customers with a seamless combination of human and AI-powered interpretation solutions. Effective immediately, LSA customers will gain access to a full suite of AI-enhanced products through Lingolet, while Lingolet customers will now have the ability to escalate to human interpreters or start sessions with live interpreters directly through LSA.

“For over a year, we explored AI options for LSA, including whether to develop our own solutions,” said Scott Cooper, LSA’s Chief Executive Officer. “After thorough due diligence, it became clear that Lingolet was the obvious choice. Their cutting-edge technology and experienced development team are well-equipped to meet the high demands of our customers. The fact that they are deeply rooted in the language services industry only solidified our decision. We’ve known their leadership team for years, and we’re thrilled to formalize this alliance.”

Bringing the Best of Both Worlds

Both Scott Cooper, CEO of LSA, and Jerry Song, CEO of Lingolet, agree this alliance represents a “win-win” for customers. “By merging LSA’s decades-long expertise in human interpretation with Lingolet’s AI-driven solutions, customers can now choose the balance of human and AI services that best fits their needs—at a price point that works for them,” Cooper and Song stated. “Not every customer wants an all-or-nothing approach to AI. This alliance gives customers the flexibility to integrate human and AI solutions seamlessly into their workflows.”

“At Lingolet, we believe the future of language services lies in empowering customers with choice and control,” said Jerry Song. “This partnership allows us to bring premium AI solutions to LSA’s global customer base while providing Lingolet customers access to world-class human interpretation services when they need them. Together, we’re setting new standards in the industry.”

Seamless Integration and Future Collaboration

Scott Cooper emphasized that one of the alliance’s key benefits is the ability for customers to transition effortlessly between AI and human interpretation services without disruption to call flows or reporting platforms. The collaborative effort will dramatically accelerate new customer solutions and user interfaces from both companies.

To further solidify their alliance, LSA and Lingolet will participate in several joint marketing initiatives starting in Q2 2025. Both companies will showcase their combined solutions at major events. As part of the business arrangement, LSA is taking an ownership position in Lingolet and Mr. Cooper will join its Board of Directors. 

While the terms of the deal remain confidential, both companies will support each other exclusively in their respective areas of expertise.
