For accessibility coordinators & the deaf/HoH community
Live captions,
on every screen.
ADA-friendly captions for events, meetings, and services in 60 seconds. Public display links, attendee phones, full transcripts after — without a CART operator on standby.
Accessible from the
very first second.
Three steps. No special hardware. No 24-hour booking lead time.
Capture the room mic
Hook a laptop into the existing PA, or use the laptop's built-in mic for smaller meetings. Press start.
Share the public link
Each session gets a public display URL and a QR code. Project the QR code, post the link, or hand it out — viewers don't need accounts.
Viewers control their experience
Each viewer picks their language, font size, theme, and contrast. The display works on phones, tablets, laptops — anything with a browser.
Built for accessibility — not bolted on.
Designed to support your ADA Title III and Section 508 accessibility efforts.
Per-viewer customization
Each attendee chooses font size, theme, and contrast on their own device. WCAG-friendly defaults; no shared compromise.
Verbatim transcripts
Every session is recorded and saved as a transcript. Export as TXT or JSON for accommodation records and FOIA-style requests.
No attendee accounts
Public display URLs work without sign-in. Attendees never give up an email or download an app to receive captions.
Latency under five seconds
Captions appear within 2–5 seconds end-to-end on Deepgram Nova-3. Fast enough to follow live conversation.
Multilingual ready
12 languages supported. The same session simultaneously serves English-only viewers and Spanish-speaking viewers from the same source audio.
No vendor lock-in for transcripts
Audio and transcripts can be exported and deleted at will. We don't sell or train models on your meetings.
Early access
Built with accessibility teams, not just for them
CaptionCast is in early access and is shaped by the coordinators and advocates who use it — Deaf and hard-of-hearing attendees reading live on their own phones, with a saved transcript after every session.
Try it free — 30 minutes on signup, no card needed. Early-access feedback goes straight to the top of the roadmap.
Cheaper than a single CART hour.
Per-event CART runs $120–$250 per hour. The CaptionCast Growth Pack is $19 once for 500 minutes — covers a full week of programming for less than thirty minutes of remote captioning. Credits don't expire, so a one-time event next quarter still costs $19.
30 minutes on signup — pilot a single event.
500 minutes — a week of regular programming.
1,500 minutes — every meeting for a month.
Common accessibility questions
Quick answers for compliance teams.
Are AI captions sufficient for ADA Title III?
ADA expects "effective communication," and DOJ guidance treats automatic captions as an aid that may need supplementing for high-stakes legal or medical contexts. CaptionCast is a strong default for most events, classrooms, and services — pair with human CART for legal proceedings or anything with binding stakes.
Can each attendee adjust their own font and contrast?
Yes. Each viewer's display has its own font size, theme, and language picker. Nothing is shared between viewers, so a low-vision viewer can run 200% font while an English-only viewer keeps captions compact.
How long are transcripts retained?
Indefinitely, until you delete them. You can also delete sessions individually, or export and purge after a retention window — many compliance teams keep a year, then rotate.
What about deaf attendees who use ASL?
CaptionCast is text only — it doesn't replace ASL interpretation. Many of our customers run captions and ASL interpretation in parallel: the captions catch nuance the interpreter compresses, and the ASL interpreter conveys tone the captions can't.
