Meet accessibility requirements with accurate captions
Closed captions and subtitles help meet WCAG and ADA accessibility standards for educational content. HappyScribe generates captions with accurate timing and speaker labels, which matters for learners who are deaf or hard of hearing. For compliance-grade captions, add human review for 99%+ accuracy.
We're happy about the quality of the subtitles from HappyScribe and the speed as well. It's actually rather fast, it rarely takes longer than a day and that's great for us!

I've been using HappyScribe for three years, and I still prefer it over any other A.I. transcription service or notetaker I've tried.
I love the agility and quality of HappyScribe, especially the quality of the summaries.
The transcription performance is the best out of the different services I've tested (Fireflies, Fathom, Gemini).
