Thinking it’s time to try a new Android app for live captions? You’re not alone. Here are a few reasons why you should use Ava instead of Live Transcribe.
#1. 99% Accurate Captions
Unlike Live Transcribe, Ava Scribe combines AI with professional captioners (Scribes) to deliver 99% accurate captions at the best price while meeting ADA requirements. At Ava, you can schedule an Ava Scribe just 6 hours before your planned conversation, meeting, or class — perfect for last-minute planning or canceled CART or other accommodations. Zoom cannot guarantee 99% accuracy with their AI-generated captions, meaning they do not meet ADA compliance.
#2. Read the room with SpeakerID
Ava is the only real-time captioning service showing who is saying what. When using Live Transcribe, all speakers appear as one in a large paragraph of text, making it difficult to follow the conversation. With Ava’s first-of-its-kind speaker identification technology for live captions, each speaker is color-coded and labeled — helping you keep up with the conversation in real time.
#3. Talk back in the conversation
With the option to use Ava to voice your text, non-voicing Deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals can actively participate in conversations, meetings, and gatherings with a natural-sounding voice. When using Live Transcribe, Deaf people cannot talk back in the conversation, meaning that it’s always a one-way conversation unless you have an interpreter available or you want to have the other person read your screen. With Ava Voice, Deaf people can interject their ideas and responses seamlessly into any conversation.
#4. Features with you in mind
When creating every feature, Ava is thinking about the Deaf and hard-of-hearing community. When using live captions with Cielo24, you’re unable to talk back in the conversation - always making it one-sided. With Ava, you can use Ava Voice to talk back in the conversation type back a response, and have Ava voice it with natural-sounding voices using text-to-speech. Ava also has an adjustable desktop app meaning you can customize your captioning experience over any web browser or media. Verbit has a one-size-fits-all solution, which in fact - does not fit all.
#5. Available on Web & Mobile with Android, and iOS
Not only can you have captions available on your mobile device—both Android and iOS, you also have the option to caption via Ava Web or Ava Desktop. Since your transcripts are hosted on the cloud, you can access any conversation through mobile, web, or desktop. With our adjustable desktop app, you can caption over any video or podcast, or you can caption during a video call through a seamless integration. Never worry about full autonomy again.
