Hey Product Hunt! I'm excited to share VolenScribe — a project born from a real need I experienced firsthand while running DevFest Ireland 2025. We wanted to provide live captions for attendees, but existing solutions were either expensive, complex to set up, or required attendees to download apps. So I built the tool I wished existed. What makes VolenScribe different: - Zero friction for attendees — they scan a QR code or visit a URL and instantly see live captions on their own device. No apps, no accounts. - Built for production — green screen output lets you pipe captions directly into OBS or any video mixer for live streams and recordings. - Community-first pricing — reduced rates for meetups, non-profits, and open-source events. Accessibility shouldn't be a luxury. This isn't just about deaf and hard of hearing attendees (though that's critical). Captions help neurodiverse folks who process information better through reading, non-native speakers following along, and anyone in a noisy environment. I'd love to hear your feedback — what features would make this useful for your events? Any accessibility challenges you've faced that I should consider? Thanks for checking it out!
