Professional captioning software for live events. Stage Captions delivers production-ready live transcription for conferences, hybrid events, and broadcasts - accessible in seconds from any browser.
Hi everyone 👋
We’re Martin & Jarek - the team behind Stage Captions. Thanks for checking us out!
💡 What inspired us to build this?
Stage Captions started because we actually needed live captions for our own event. We were helping organize a medical conference in Vilnius 🇱🇹 and accessibility was an important requirement - but we couldn’t find a solution that was simple, flexible and event-friendly.
Most options were either tied to meeting platforms or felt like enterprise captioning tools that were expensive and complicated to set up for a single event. We wanted something much simpler: open a browser, start captions, share a link and let attendees follow along on their own devices.
So we built it ourselves - and used it live at the conference. Seeing people open the caption link on their phones and follow the talks in real time confirmed we were solving a real problem.
🎯 What problem we’re solving?
Our goal is to make live captions easy and accessible for events:
- no apps or downloads for attendees
- works instantly in any browser on any device
- minimal setup for organizers and AV teams
It’s built for talks, conferences, meetings and livestreams where accessibility and clarity actually matter.

Love this, its really smart idea. Live captions at events are always either overcomplicated or crazy expensive, so a simple browser link solution makes a lot of sense. Great launch, Martin & Jarek!
@aksayyed Thank you so much! Really appreciate the kind words and support. Making live captions simple and accessible was exactly our goal, so it means a lot that it resonates with you.
@aksayyed thanks for actually taking your time and reflecting on it :) I also believe that browser-based integration simplicity should help in adopting such tools more widely to promote accessibility during live events.

Congrats on the launch! 🚀 I absolutely love how stagecaptions.io makes live events more inclusive. In today's world, accessibility isn't just a 'nice-to-have,' it’s a core part of a brand's reputation. How does the system handle different accents or noisy environments during a live broadcast? Excited to see where you take this! 💪
@tereza_hurtova Thanks so much, really appreciate it! Making events more inclusive is exactly what we’re aiming for 🎯
For accuracy, we take a direct feed from the speaker’s mic or the mixer rather than room audio, which removes most background noise and keeps captions clean even in loud venues.
For accents, we rely on modern speech recognition models trained on diverse voices, so they handle different speaking styles quite well :)
