About the company
Telecommunications
ZP is America's leading provider of Video Relay Services (VRS), Video Remote Interpreting (VRI), CART & Captioning Services, and on-site ASL interpreting - born from the union of two trailblazers: ZVRS and Purple Communications.
For decades, Purple and ZVRS each fought to ensure that Deaf, Hard of Hearing, and Speech-Disabled individuals could communicate freely and without barriers. Today, ZP stands as the most trusted name in accessible communications - serving employers, healthcare systems, educational institutions, and government agencies - powered by passionate people, cutting-edge technology, and an unbreakable commitment to the communities we serve.
VRS enables Deaf and Hard of Hearing individuals who use American Sign Language (ASL) to communicate with hearing people over the phone through a qualified interpreter. VRI provides on-demand remote interpreting for in-person conversations, while on-site interpreting brings qualified ASL interpreters directly to workplaces, healthcare settings, schools, events, and other locations where face-to-face communication is needed.
We believe communication is a fundamental human right. That belief drives every product we build, every interpreter we certify, and every call we connect. Every conversation matters. We're better together.
Connect with ZP to bring accessible communication to your organization - and be part of what comes next. Visit zpbettertogether.com, follow us for the latest in Deaf accessibility innovation, or contact our enterprise team to support your DEI and ADA compliance goals.
