THE FUTURE OF AUDIO DESCRIPTION

Make the world more accessible one video at a time

MISSION

Accessibility for All

Audible Sight is a computer vision application for content creators that rapidly adds audio description to any video, ensuring Section 508, WCAG and ADA compliance.

Our vision is to open a universe of video content that is currently inaccessible for visually impaired persons, by making audio description as ubiquitous as closed captioning is for the hearing impaired.

Designed for non-technical users

Traditional methods for producing audio description require an experienced audio description writer, a voice actor, and a video editor. Audible Sight leverages recent advances in AI to democratize the process. It’s designed for content creators and administrators who curate videos. No technical skills are required.

AI-Enabled Automation

Within minutes, Audible Sight will auotmatically break any video into logical scenes and generate text descriptions from the visuals. You can easily edit the descriptions and move them using drag-n-drop.

Section 508, WCAG, ADA compliance and EAA compliance for the EU

Audible Sight inserts the selected descriptions into the video using lifelike synthetic text-to-speech, and automatically inserts small still-frame pauses between scenes to make space for the descriptions. This is called “Extended Audio Description,” which is an industry standard.

WHY AUDIBLE SIGHT

A different approach, using a new method.

In a world dominated by platforms like YouTube, EdX, and TikTok, in which videos have become the preferred mode of self-directed learning and a key source of information, education, government content, and social interaction, our groundbreaking technology ensures that 340 million blind and low-vision people will not be left behind. Our innovation empowers this underserved group to fully participate, unlocking their full potential across education, employment, exploration, entertainment, and self-reliance.
