Stage Captions

Putting live captions on a venue screen, a stream overlay or an attendee's phone is the job Stage Captions does.

Stage Captions is a real-time closed captioning tool that turns speech into on-screen text for live events, conferences and broadcasts.

It runs in the browser, so there is nothing to install and no plugin to add.

Audiences can follow along by opening a simple URL or scanning a QR code on their own devices.

For the venue itself, captions can go to screens, and for streams they can go to an overlay.

The tool works with production software such as OBS Studio and Resolume Arena, which matters if your show already runs through one of them.

A presenter dashboard gives you control during the session.

Custom dictionaries let you add technical terms, names and jargon so the AI transcription gets them right, a common weak spot in live speech-to-text.

The engine is built for low latency, so the text keeps close to the speaker.

Stage Captions suits event teams and AV crews who need subtitles live rather than after the fact.
