Professional captioning software for live events. Stage Captions delivers production-ready live transcription for conferences, hybrid events, and broadcasts - accessible in seconds from any browser.
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.

A simple solution for a very frequent problem, especially if you present to large audiences. I'm excited to see how you guys build this out :)
Congrats on the launch! 🚀 I absolutely love how stagecaptions.io makes live events more inclusive. In today's world, accessibility isn't just a 'nice-to-have,' it’s a core part of a brand's reputation. How does the system handle different accents or noisy environments during a live broadcast? Excited to see where you take this! 💪
Love this, its really smart idea. Live captions at events are always either overcomplicated or crazy expensive, so a simple browser link solution makes a lot of sense. Great launch, Martin & Jarek!
Love the friction-less 'browser-first' approach—I actually shared that same philosophy when I speed-ran the build for Featmap.app on a 4-hour train ride to create a completely free feedback board that founders can set up in 30 seconds.
