To all the teachers lighting up minds and making learning accessible for every student: We see you, and we appreciate you. Happy #WorldTeachersDay! ❤️
One of our users shared a video to show how they are using Zip Captions to #caption content from their computer using a secondary screen.

Are you using Zip Captions in an unusual or innovative way? We'd love to hear from you!

It's awards season in schools, and we've been busy making some events more accessible. This is the reason that we made Zip Captions, but now people are using it for so much more! How are you using captioning? #a11y
Make sure that you have a look at our new Google Chrome Extension, which allows you to keep your captions active at the bottom of every tab that you are using. You can also pop out your captions!

Add it to Chrome today: chromewebstore.google.com/detail/zipca...

Just because #GAAD is over, doesn't mean that the world needs to stop being an accessible place. Accessibility matters every single day, and that's why Zip Captions is here to help you to make every single moment more accessible. Join us on our journey to make the world a more accessible place!
In the last 12 months, over 1000 people have installed Zip Captions from the Microsoft Store, and of the nearly 8000 who have visited the page, almost 15% installed Zip Captions! These are some seriously impressive numbers!
It's Speech and Hearing Month and Zip Captions is an ideal member of your speech and hearing toolkit, allowing users to better understand speech and to assist hearing. How are you using Zip Captions?

Have you tried the transcription feature in Zip Captions? With it you can take a transcript of a lesson, a lecture or presentation and produce a plethora of resources for free using Notebook LM from Google. #accessibility #a11y #edusky
Make sure that you have set your dialect to ensure that you are getting the most accurate results for your voice. If you have moved between counties, or you have an accent which is a mix of cultures, you might need to try a few different ones to get the most accurate results that you can!
We're excited to announce two things today:

1. We have issued everyone who uses Zip Captions with 30 minutes of our Enhanced Captions. These will automatically appear in your account next time you login.

2. The Enhanced Captioning Engine will now be the default if you have tokens
Are you sure that your audience can understand what you're saying? Adding captioning gives instant clarity for everyone, and allows you to connect with your audience. That's what Zip Captions does! How do you ensure that everyone gets your message? #accessibility #a11y #edusky #events
We rely on our users spreading the word about Zip Captions and the power of captions. So if you have a moment, please share @zipcaptions.app and let the world know about the power of Live Captions!
You might be wondering why you should use our new captioning engine:

- More accurate on a mobile device
- Proper sentence structure
- Better punctuation
- Lower Word Error Rate

These features lead to:

- More accurate captioning
- More accurate transcripts
- Higher readability scores

Each year on March 3rd, the World Health Organization celebrates #WorldHearingDay. This year's theme is Changing Mindsets to Empower Yourself. Zip Captions allows people to do exactly this, to empower themselves! As a friend recently said, "it's bring your own accessibility".
We encountered a small issue with our new Captioning engine implementation - it would stop after 20 minutes - but don't fret, it's all fixed now! Plus, we'll now automatically roll you over to the free engine when you run out of tokens! Swanky!
We've just launched a ton of features, some of them huge improvements to our captioning flow.

You can read our latest press release here: www.zipsolutions.org/pressrelease...
Let's revolutionize accessibility and let people know that captions are for everyone. That's because what's essential for some is beneficial for all! #a11y #accessibility #essentialforsomebeneficialforall
Along with today's huge update adding AI based captions, we also added dialect support for everyone! This doesn't matter if you're a Patron, or just a regular user, you can now choose a dialect to help make captioning more accurate. You can find dialects in the settings. #a11y #accessibility
We're thrilled to announce that our Patrons are the first to have access to an additional recognition provider. A paid service, that uses the latest speech recognition technology to provide high quality, reliable captions to people who want them. Read more here: www.patreon.com/posts/122933...
