Accessibility and multilingual communication at events

AVEX uses Soundshape at business events, conferences and livestreams where accessibility and multilingual communication are important.

The company was looking for a user-friendly and affordable way to provide live captions and translation. Its aim was to help clients make their events more accessible to a wider audience.

Live captions and translation for livestreams and hybrid events

AVEX uses Soundshape to provide live captions and real-time translation during livestreams and hybrid events. This allows the company to add captioning and translation to the events it supports.

According to AVEX, the controls are straightforward and easy to navigate. This fits its need for a solution that is practical to use.

More options for clients

Soundshape helps AVEX make events more accessible to a wider audience. Users appreciate having live captions and translations available.

AVEX also finds that clients value having a relatively affordable option for this support. It gives the company a practical way to respond to requests for accessibility and multilingual communication.

Positive feedback and practical considerations

Feedback is predominantly positive. At the same time, AVEX identifies a few practical points of attention.

According to AVEX, it can sometimes be difficult to check immediately whether audio is coming through correctly and how the source audio is being processed. The company also occasionally receives feedback that translations of specialist terminology and everyday words could be improved.

The straightforward controls and availability of captions and translation are appreciated, while these practical considerations remain part of the day-to-day experience.

“With Soundshape, we can easily make our events accessible to a wider audience.”
