Some of your viewers cannot hear the video clearly, or cannot follow its language.

Live captions

Live captions for your event and your stream, on every viewer's phone.

Captions appear as the speaker talks, in the speaker's language or in the viewer's own. Text size is theirs to choose. Afterwards, a transcript is ready in every language.

More samples in the demo

Picture this

A town hall where not everyone can hear.

For example

  1. 19:00

    The town hall starts in a room with an echo. Daniel has hearing loss and has stopped coming to these.

  2. 19:01

    He scans the QR code at the door. The captions open in his browser, in the size he chose.

  3. 19:40

    A resident speaks fast from the back of the room. Daniel reads it as it is said.

  4. Next day

    The organiser sends the transcript to everyone who could not come.

For the listener

From the QR code to the captions in three taps.

The same QR code serves the room and everyone watching online. Viewers read along in the language they choose.

  1. Step 1

    Scan the QR code

    On the screen, a poster or the seat card. The guest page opens in the browser. No app, no account.

  2. Step 2

    Pick their language

    Each language is listed in its own name, so they know what they will read.

  3. Step 3

    Read along, make the text bigger

    The captions appear as the speaker talks. They choose the text size, and scroll back to a line they missed.

For the organiser

You decide which languages are offered, and when the session starts.

Everything runs from the operator console your sound desk already uses for captions.

The real InterScribe operator console before going live: source, captions area, channels, Go live
  1. Add a language per channel
  2. Go live: captions start
  3. Who is listening

Languages, one by one

Captions run in every language on their own. Add a language where your guests need one.

One button to start

Go live, or let standby start it at the session's time after a sound check.

See who is listening

A count per language, so you know which languages are being read.

How guests join

One QR code. Every guest reads in the language they pick.

Guests scan the code on a screen, a poster or a seat card, choose a language and read along on the phone they brought. Nobody installs anything.

Questions people ask us

Something else? Ask us about your room and your languages.

Talk to a person
What are video captions?

Text of what is said, shown while it is said. InterScribe captions live: the speaker's words appear on viewers' phones in the speaker's language or a translation, and a transcript is kept afterwards.

Can viewers make the text bigger?

Yes. Text size is theirs to choose, on their own phone.

Are the captions in the speaker's language or a translation?

Either. Viewers can read the speaker's own language or pick a translation, from the same link.

Can it caption a video file?

Not yet. InterScribe captions sessions you run through it, live. Captions for recorded videos are being built, launching later in 2026.

Do I keep a transcript?

Yes. When the session ends, a transcript is ready in every language that was used, with an SRT file for your recording.

Do guests need an app or an account?

No. They scan a QR code or open a link in their phone’s browser. Nothing to install, and no account needed to read or listen.

Will it get names and technical terms right?

Often, with help. Add speakers, places and your own terms to a vocabulary before the day. AI can still get names, quotations and jokes wrong, so test with your real speaker.
