1. Pre-Event Preparation

1.1 Identify Event Requirements

Determine the type of event (e.g., conference, webinar, panel discussion) and the expected audience size to tailor the captioning approach.

1.2 Select AI Transcription Tools

Choose appropriate AI-driven transcription tools based on the event’s needs. Recommended tools include:

• Otter.ai: Offers real-time transcription and collaboration features.
• Rev.ai: Provides accurate AI-generated captions with an option for human editing.
• Google Cloud Speech-to-Text: Supports multiple languages and can be integrated into custom applications.

1.3 Set Up Hardware and Software

Ensure all necessary equipment (microphones, cameras, etc.) is in place and test the software to confirm compatibility.

2. Event Execution

2.1 Live Audio Capture

Utilize high-quality microphones to capture audio clearly, minimizing background noise for better transcription accuracy.

2.2 Activate AI Transcription Tool

Start the selected AI transcription tool before the event begins to ensure it is capturing audio in real-time.
