Caption.Ed is captioning, transcription, and note-taking software that helps people become more independent. Caption.ed can work particulary well with Phonak Roger equipment for those with hearing loss.
Unlike in-built captions, Caption.Ed provides highly accurate, lightning-fast speech-to-text which means users get access to consistent, reliable captioning software. Combine that with the power of in-app note-taking and Caption.Ed is a product which truly helps people thrive in work and education.
We recommend you pair up your Phonak Transmitter (for example your Roger On, Select or Table Mic) to a Roger Neckloop (as well as any other Roger receivers you are using), connect the Neckloop to your laptop with a provided USB-A to USB-C cable (also used for charging the Neckloop) and make sure within Caption.ed that you select ‘Roger Neckloop’ as the selected sound source. The already very accurate Caption’ed software will be turbocharged to a whole new level of accuracy.
The combination of Phonak Roger and Caption.ed – Dream Team!
