Human Captioning: The Gold Standard

This premium level of captioning involves a highly trained real-time captioner who remotely watches and listens to your program in real-time, typing every spoken word using a special stenographic keyboard. The steno is translated into English text, formatted as captions, and sent to a physical caption encoder or online platform via IP, modem, or phone line. The captions are then continuously encoded into the video stream.

Benefits of Human Captioning

  • Highest Accuracy: Generated by skilled human captioners, our captions achieve up to 99.5% accuracy. This is ideal for applications where precision is critical and audio quality may be challenging.
  • Adaptability: Human live captioners, with proper preparation and familiarity with the presenter's material and style, can handle fast-paced speech, unfamiliar terms, and accents, achieving a significantly higher accuracy rate.

Best Suited For

  • Critical Accuracy Needs: Ideal for live broadcasts, legal proceedings, or medical conferences where precision is paramount.
  • Complex Audio: Handles challenging audio conditions, including background noise, multiple speakers, and fast-paced dialogue.
  • Specialized Content: Perfect for events with technical jargon, unique terminology, or specialized vocabulary.
  • High-stakes Events: Suitable for important events like live news, sports broadcasts, and major public addresses.
