The ultimate tool for theatre captioning.
We use human-cented design principles, so you can build audiences that are bigger, more diverse and inclusive.
We personally visit theaters and observe the captioning process. We then change the design accordingly. Our goal is to create a tool that finally solves issues related to theater captioning once and for all. That should allow you to:
Become a theater of choice for people with hearing-loss
By 2050 nearly 2.5 billion people are projected to have some degree of hearing loss and at least 700 million will require hearing rehabilitation.
Attract foreign audience - expats and tourists
Captioned theater shows sell an average of 30% more tickets in middle to large cities.

Our theater lacks the necessary equipment for surtitling. Is there a way you can assist?
Yes, we can help. Our upcoming feature, Captions to Audio, eliminates the need for projection equipment. It streams translated spoken surtitles like a podcast, requiring only a smartphone, earphones, and internet access for your audience.
How can we reduce the cost of implementing surtitles?
Captitles significantly reduces the time and cost of creating surtitles by automating and translating them through AI. Plus, we're developing features like Automatic Surtitles Detection and Captions to Audio to further cut costs.
We had supertitles in our past, but they didn't attract more audience. Why?
Consistency and marketing are key. Regular captioning of all shows and clear information about this in your marketing materials are vital. Promoting your captioned shows in relevant channels, like local groups for people with hearing disabilities, can also make a significant difference.
