Budget estimate

$1,000,000 – $2,000,000

No monetary figures are disclosed, but typical remote interpretation contracts for a city of Boston’s size run between $1 million and $2 million annually, based on an estimated hourly rate of $150‑$250 and a 24/7 service requirement (≈8,760 hours per year). The range accounts for variability in language mix, call volume, and any premium service levels.
