A student who is still learning the language of instruction spends the hour translating instead of thinking. Live captions in their own language give them the hour back.
A student following a lecture in a second language spends part of every sentence catching up. By the time the meaning lands, the next point has already gone past. They fall behind on material they would otherwise handle easily.
Give them the words in the language they think in and the gap closes. They stop translating and start listening, which is what you wanted from them in the first place.
International students follow live in their own language, reading captions or listening in one earbud, while they take notes by hand like everybody else.
A pupil who arrived last term follows the lesson in their home language while they build the new one. Nobody has to sit beside them whispering, and nobody has to leave the room.
The parents who nod politely through a school meeting they cannot follow are the ones you most need to reach. They follow it on their own phone instead, with nobody having to bring a relative to interpret.
Onboarding, safety training, compliance sessions. Everyone gets it at the same moment in the language they actually understand.
Research seminars, doctoral defences and visiting-speaker sessions. Load the field terminology in beforehand and the specialist vocabulary holds up.
Live captions in the language being spoken serve students who are hard of hearing. The same setup, running at the same time, does both jobs.
Whoever looks after the room connects it once. After that the person teaching opens it and starts. There is no per-class setup, no cable to find, no login to remember mid-lecture.
There are three ways to pay, and which is cheapest depends entirely on how much you teach.
Run it in a real lecture with real students, paying only for that hour, before anyone has to write a business case.
A department running a handful of sessions pays as it goes. One teaching several a week is usually better off on a monthly membership.

For a faculty, a university or a school district, tell us the shape of it and we will put a number on the whole thing. Terms are agreed with the institution.

We have not run a large university deployment yet, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. If you would be the first, we would rather start with one course and earn the rest.
They scan a code at the start of class or type a 7-digit code, pick their language, and follow with captions, a voice in their earbuds, or both. Nothing to install, no account to create, and it is free for them.
Add the key terminology and the names that recur in the course as keywords, and paste the syllabus or the outline into the Context Enhancer the day before. The words that carry the meaning then stay right instead of being approximated.
The speaker’s audio is handled as it is spoken, and room data may be held for a while so a session can recover and be billed correctly. Delete the room and its data goes with it. Data is hosted primarily in the EU. The FAQ page sets out the detail, and we can provide a data processing agreement for an institution.
It is a fair question, and it depends on the class. In an immersion lesson, captions in the language being taught keep pupils in it while giving them something to hold on to. In a subject lesson, where the point is the physics and not the language, a pupil should not fail physics for a vocabulary reason. You choose which languages are available per session.
Yes. Each room has its own code and its own language list. Tell us how many run at once and we make sure your account carries them.
Start with one course, one room, one hour, and pay only for that.
