Coming soonSee the setup guide

Where live event captions fit

  • - Panels, talks, lectures, workshops, tours, and community events.
  • - Ceremonies, announcements, speeches, vows, and toasts.
  • - Events using one spoken source language throughout the run.
  • - Rooms that want phone captions, a shared screen, or both.

Where this may not fit

  • - Meetings where speakers regularly switch between source languages.
  • - Music-led events, singing, or speech with sustained heavy overlap.
  • - Recorded-media caption files or post-production transcription.
  • - Events whose audience promise requires professional CART, guaranteed accuracy, or certified compliance.

Audience entry

Plan the audio before the link

A clear dialogue feed matters more than the QR code. Select one spoken source language, test the actual microphone or mixer route, and check every promised output before people arrive.

Event workflow

  1. 1Choose the event's spoken language.
  2. 2Select up to three audience translation languages.
  3. 3Test the microphone or dialogue feed in the room.
  4. 4Place the audience link or QR code where people can enter before the event starts.
  5. 5Run and monitor the captions from one live console.

Follow the event as it happens

Pockitle is designed for live talks, panels, workshops, lectures, tours, ceremonies, speeches, and community events. It does not require a prepared transcript or slide-based caption deck.

Give each listener a reading route

Audience members open one link in their phone browser and choose an available language. A venue screen can show one selected language for the room. No audience app is required.

Test what the room will actually hear

Room microphones can capture applause, music, reflections, and audience speech. A controlled dialogue feed is the safer choice when the venue can provide one.

Common questions

What kinds of events can use Pockitle?

Pockitle can fit talks, panels, workshops, lectures, tours, ceremonies, and other speech-led events that use one spoken source language.

Does the audience need to install an app?

No. The audience opens a link or QR code in a mobile browser and chooses an available caption language.

Can captions appear on both phones and a venue screen?

Yes. Audience phones can choose from the available languages, while each venue screen is assigned one selected caption language.

Are the captions reviewed before publication?

No. Pockitle publishes machine-generated live captions. They can be delayed or wrong, so the audience promise and fallback plan should reflect that.
