Live Captions
Live captions are real-time text transcriptions of spoken audio during live events — webinars, lectures, broadcasts, telehealth calls — required by WCAG 1.2.4 Captions (Live) at Level AA for synchronised audio content, and produced by human stenocaptioners, automatic speech recognition (ASR), or a hybrid.
About Live Captions
ASR accuracy ranges 70–95% depending on content and accent; high-stakes content benefits from human review.
