Deliver clear, real-time captions with Interprefy's powerful enterprise AI technology. Our closed captions and subtitles transcribe spoken content instantly — either in the original language or translated — making events and meetings more accessible, inclusive, and compliant for global audiences.
Closed captions and subtitles are real-time text overlays that let audiences read along with spoken content — closed captions show it in the original language, subtitles show it translated.
Interprefy's live captioning and subtitling technology brings that same real-time text experience into conferences, meetings, and broadcasts, matched to the accuracy and speed enterprise audiences expect. Built to keep pace with fast-moving, multi-speaker conversations, it gives organisations a way to make every session readable and understandable for any audience, in any language, without relying on manual transcription or last-minute fixes.
Run them separately or together from the same live audio feed — captions for accessibility, subtitles for multilingual reach.
AI-powered real-time speech-to-text transcription. Effortlessly transcribe spoken language in its original form, instantly and in real time with enterprise-grade speech-to-text technology providing outstanding accuracy in more than 80 languages. Perfect for events where accessibility, clarity, and compliance are key.
AI-powered real-time speech-to-translated-text. Experience real-time translation of spoken content and enterprise-level multilingual accessibility with the combined power of speech-to-text and machine translation. Deliver live translated subtitles in more than 80 languages, helping you reach multilingual audiences with ease.
Closed captions display spoken content as text in its original language, while subtitles display that same content translated into another language. Both run in real time alongside live or recorded speech, but they serve different purposes.
| Feature | Closed Captions | Subtitles |
|---|---|---|
| Language | Same language as the speaker | Translated into the audience's language |
| Primary purpose | Accessibility | Multilingual access |
| Best for | Deaf or hard-of-hearing participants, noisy environments, or following along without audio | Audiences who don't speak the event's original language |
| Focus | Making spoken content readable | Making spoken content understandable across languages |

Explore moreLive captions and subtitles play a direct role in helping organisations align with globally recognised accessibility standards. Making spoken content available as readable text — in the original language or translated — is a core requirement across most accessibility frameworks, which is why captioning is consistently named as a key tool for inclusive event design.

Captions and subtitles built into the event plan from the start, not added as an afterthought.
Interprefy's live captions and subtitles are designed to support organisations working toward these standards as part of their broader accessibility strategy — helping create events that are inclusive by design, not as an afterthought. Meeting any specific regulation depends on the full scope of an event's accessibility measures, and organisations should confirm their own compliance requirements with the appropriate authority or legal advisor.
Interprefy's AI-powered captioning and subtitling solutions help organisations make their events more inclusive, compliant, and globally accessible — without compromising quality or performance. Whether your event is online, onsite, or hybrid, Interprefy ensures every participant can read, understand, and engage — regardless of language or hearing ability.
Live captions and subtitles help organisations create more inclusive experiences by making spoken content accessible to participants who are deaf or hard of hearing, non-native speakers, and attendees participating in noisy environments. By improving comprehension and engagement, captions support accessibility initiatives across both public and private sector organisations.
Powered by the best speech recognition technology on the market, Interprefy delivers enterprise-grade closed captions and subtitles with minimal delay — ensuring your audience can follow the conversation as it happens and stay engaged throughout the presentation.
Captions can be translated into 80+ languages in real time, helping you connect with a broader global audience that might not speak your event's language.

Interprefy helps you meet global accessibility standards and legal requirements, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the European Accessibility Act, and WCAG guidelines — giving you peace of mind that your event is inclusive and enterprise compliant.
Explore how Interprefy's enterprise-grade live captions and subtitles make your events more accessible and inclusive — delivering real-time closed captions and subtitles that enhance understanding and engagement for global audiences.
Closed captions display spoken content as text in its original language, while subtitles display that same content translated into another language. Captions are primarily an accessibility tool, helping audiences read along or follow content in noisy environments, while subtitles are a multilingual tool, helping audiences understand content in a language they speak. Many events use both together to support accessibility and multilingual access at the same time.
Live captions and subtitles are ideal for organisations that prioritise accessibility, inclusion, and global reach. They ensure equal access for deaf or hard-of-hearing participants, support non-native speakers, and make content easier to follow in noisy environments or across diverse audiences. Beyond enhancing engagement, Interprefy's captioning solutions help organisations meet accessibility and compliance requirements, including EAA or WCAG and ADA standards for digital events. Our captions and subtitles can be added to webinars, conferences, hybrid events, or live streams — making every event more inclusive and compliant by design.
Unlike other providers, Interprefy's live captioning and subtitling solution is purpose-built for professional events, combining advanced AI speech recognition with robust event infrastructure for exceptional accuracy and real-time performance. Captions and subtitles can be displayed anywhere your audience needs them — on event screens, laptops, or mobile devices — making content accessible and easy to follow for every participant. Our custom vocabulary feature ensures event-specific terms, acronyms, and speaker names are captured accurately, while 24/7 expert technical support and project management guarantee smooth delivery from start to finish. Interprefy also offers post-event media services, such as adding captions to recordings for on-demand content, extending accessibility long after the event ends.
Interprefy's live captions deliver exceptional accuracy, powered by advanced AI speech recognition and refined for live event conditions. Under optimal audio settings, accuracy levels can achieve over 90% accuracy, as measured by the industry-standard Word Error Rate (WER). Real-world performance depends on factors such as sound quality, accent, and background noise. To maximise precision, organisers can use Interprefy's custom vocabulary feature and benefit from expert event support before and during sessions. Together, these tools ensure captions remain clear, consistent, and accessible across any event.
The delay in Interprefy's platform is below 0.2s from when the words are spoken, making them effectively real-time for both in-person and virtual audiences. This near-instant display is powered by advanced speech recognition technology optimised for live event conditions, ensuring captions keep pace with fast-moving discussions, multiple speakers, and natural conversational speech without noticeable lag.
