CaptionSync Advantages

CaptionSync is a web-based automated captioning service, so there is no software or hardware to purchase and it is available 7x24.  There is no up front commitment required – you are just billed for the time used.  Plus:

• Speed: Results are available minutes later (a one hour long program is captioned in less than 5 minutes if a transcript is provided!) - a fraction of the time needed for traditional captioning.
• Convenience: No tapes to ship, no paperwork to do, no software to install; just submit your show over the web and get the results.
• Cost: AST captioning costs just a fraction of traditional captioning.  And the more you do, the less expensive it gets.
• Flexibility: CaptionSync offers dozens of different output formats; you may select to receive as many of the available outputs as you wish - without any increase in cost or latency.
