Education
Students who are deaf or hard of hearing, studying in a second language, or sitting at the back of a large hall all learn better with captions.
Line 21 brings professional captioners or speech recognition into the lecture hall and the online classroom, with translations for international students.

What makes it hard
Accessibility obligations
Captioning is often a reasonable adjustment under accessibility law, where human captioners are the recognised standard.
Recorded content too
Lectures are recorded and reused, and the recordings need subtitles as well.
How Line 21 handles it
Recognised human captioning
CART captioners recognised under regulations such as the ADA, the Equality Act 2010 and the European Accessibility Act.
AI that knows the subject
Add the syllabus, slides and reading lists so speech recognition and the AI Proofreader know the course's terms.
On every student's device
Students follow on their own laptop or phone and choose the language they read in.
Subtitles for recordings
Accurate, well-timed subtitles for recorded lectures and course videos.
