The Real Cost of Webinar Captioning

CART captioning — Communication Access Realtime Translation — is the traditional solution for accessible webinars. A trained stenographer listens and types captions in real time, achieving high accuracy for English content. The problem is the cost: CART captioning typically runs $150 to $300 per hour, requires advance scheduling, and is not available in most languages beyond English.

For an organization running two webinars per week, CART captioning can cost $15,000 to $31,000 per year. That is before accounting for international webinars that need multilingual support — where you would need separate interpreters for each language, each billing at their own hourly rate.

StreamTranslate changes the economics entirely. Powered by our industry-leading speech AI, our AI delivers accuracy that rivals human CART captioners for most webinar content, available instantly in 125+ languages, at a flat monthly rate. See our pricing to understand the difference in cost.

CART Alternative

our industry-leading speech AI delivers CART-level accuracy at a fraction of the cost. No booking, no per-hour billing, no minimum session lengths.

International Webinars

125+ languages covered. Your English webinar can have simultaneous Spanish, French, Japanese, Korean, and Portuguese captions — all at once.

ADA Compliance

Real-time accurate captions help meet ADA requirements for public webinars. Serve your deaf and hard-of-hearing attendees without the CART overhead.

How to Caption Your Webinars with StreamTranslate

StreamTranslate integrates with every major webinar platform through OBS. The workflow is straightforward: run your webinar normally in Zoom, Webex, GoToWebinar, or any other platform. Simultaneously, have OBS running with your webinar screen captured and the StreamTranslate browser source overlay added to your scene.

StreamTranslate captures your microphone audio, processes it through our industry-leading speech AI for transcription, translates it into your target languages, and displays the captions as a clean overlay that your audience sees. The latency is typically under two seconds — comparable to what CART captioners achieve.

For international webinars, you can configure which languages appear in the caption overlay. The setup guide walks through every step of the integration process.
