Why Captions?

1 in 6 people experience hearing loss (Source: Australian Government) in an ageing population.


Not all d/Deaf attendees use or understand Auslan (Australian Sign Language); some simply have a preference for captions.


Captions assist those who speak English as a second language. 

English captions can also be translated in real time into your choice of other languages.


Event captioning by a professional stenographer allows for equity and accessibility.


People comprehend and process information in different ways; for some, reading text is the most effective way to absorb and understand information.


A live captioning transcript by Access Captions allows for review, feedback, sharing and record-keeping of an event's proceedings.

Text on monitor: "You deserve a big plug. Compared to AI captioning, it's a dream, yes, absolutely."

Our Vision

Access Captions aims to be the most trusted, approachable and respected provider of professional live captioning services in Australia.


How? By delivering captions of unrivalled accuracy - created in real time by a professional stenographer - for your meetings and events, large and small.


Access Captions will guide you through the technical set-up to have captions at your event. It's simple and requires no complicated software downloads or subscriptions.


Automatic or AI captioning promises a lot but fails to deliver. If you wish to provide truly accessible, accurate and sensible captions for your attendees, a human stenographer is required. 


Why use auto captions which are full of errors, don't make sense, and frustrate those who need them most?


Access Captions knows accuracy matters and guarantees premium, accurate and accessible captions.
