The most successful meetings and events are those where everyone participates. Unfortunately this is not always possible for hearing challenged attendees and participants. You need fast and accurate transcriptions and ScribeWire's Real-time transcription services deliver just that, making your events and meetings more accessible, more effective, and more productive.

Real-time transcription turns any meeting or event into an inclusive experience. As a North American leader in full-spectrum media accessibility, ScribeWire, formerly known as CCS, provides real-time transcription services that go beyond mere translation to text; they ensure that D/deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals have access to information that enables them to actively participate in events.

We will help you to get everyone at your meeting or event, or in your classroom involved and excited about your information.

Real-time transcription is sometimes also referred to as Communication Access Realtime Translation (CART). It allows D/deaf and hard-of-hearing people to participate in group discussions, meetings, and seminars like never before. It can provide human and AI-powered speech-to-text translation faster than any other captioning system.

Unlike other services like closed captions that polish text before it is captioned, CART live captioning communicates all spoken words or environmental sounds through on-screen text. This type of live captioning empowers your audience to choose what is important for them, while also giving them a more nuanced understanding of the setting.

ScribeWire’s CART services are not just about accessibility; they’re about empowering participation in a world where every voice matters. We bridge the gap between speech and text, fostering inclusivity in every conversation.

At the heart of our real-time transcription services is our team of experienced professional stenographers, known for their exceptional skill in live transcription. Unlike automatic speech recognition, our real-time transcribers (or CART writers) use phonetic shorthand on a stenotype machine, capturing every nuance of spoken language with unparalleled precision. This human-centred approach ensures a richer, more connected experience. Our transcribers are adept at translating the spoken word into written form in real-time, far surpassing traditional speech-to-text methods.

Real-time transcription is used in meetings or wherever verbatim communication is required. This can include settings like town hall meetings, support groups, legislative hearings, job interviews, court proceedings, even as an alternative to Zoom transcription. It has a wide range of applications across business, governments and other entities. 

Our commitment to versatility means that our live transcriptions can be displayed prominently at conferences or accessed discreetly on personal mobile devices. With customizable viewing options including changes in colour, size, and contrast, we can guarantee accessibility for every participant.

For an even wider audience, consider pairing real-time transcription with simultaneous interpretation or ASL services to allow real-time transcription of spoken content into different languages. This type of integration promotes equal participation and engagement for all attendees, regardless of their communication preferences or accessibility needs. 

ScribeWire's remote real-time transcription services redefine accessibility, bringing our renowned transcription expertise directly to you, wherever you are. With just a solid internet connection, our qualified transcribers deliver high-quality, real-time transcriptions without the need to be physically present, ensuring that every word is captured with precision and clarity.

As a remote transcription and CART provider, our team of experienced stenographers, equipped with advanced technology and professional certifications, provides verbatim services that are always accessible, making every meeting and event inclusive. 

AI live captioning is known for its inaccuracy, and in some cases, only gets about 50% of the content right! Universities have even faced lawsuits for not offering accurate captioning. At ScribeWire, we are always striving for a 100% accuracy rate, consistently surpassing the industry norm. 

Transcripts from ScribeWire are not only accurate; they are a testament to our unwavering commitment to quality and inclusivity, ensuring that participants, regardless of their hearing abilities, receive the information in real time.
