About this resource

About

Ava is a cross-platform captioning app founded to close the communication gap between deaf and hearing people. It uses a blend of AI speech recognition and professional human scribes to generate fast, accurate captions of any spoken content in real time.

What It Does

Ava captions live in-person conversations through a shared group view that identifies individual speakers, and it integrates with Zoom, Teams, and other video platforms. A paid Scribe tier connects users to a certified CART captioner for high-stakes situations such as medical appointments, job interviews, or legal proceedings.

Who It Helps

Deaf and hard-of-hearing adults and young adults who need reliable real-time captions in group settings, the workplace, or educational environments. Also useful for people with auditory processing challenges or those learning a second language.
