Hi everyone 👋
We’re Martin & Jarek - the team behind Stage Captions. Thanks for checking us out!
💡 What inspired us to build this?
Stage Captions started because we actually needed live captions for our own event. We were helping organize a medical conference in Vilnius 🇱🇹 and accessibility was an important requirement - but we couldn’t find a solution that was simple, flexible and event-friendly.
Most options were either tied to meeting platforms or felt like enterprise captioning tools that were expensive and complicated to set up for a single event. We wanted something much simpler: open a browser, start captions, share a link and let attendees follow along on their own devices.
So we built it ourselves - and used it live at the conference. Seeing people open the caption link on their phones and follow the talks in real time confirmed we were solving a real problem.
🎯 What problem we’re solving?
Our goal is to make live captions easy and accessible for events:
- no apps or downloads for attendees
- works instantly in any browser on any device
- minimal setup for organizers and AV teams
It’s built for talks, conferences, meetings and livestreams where accessibility and clarity actually matter.
