What makes a good captioning company?
Just like in any industry, there are plenty of options when it comes to captioning companies. So how do you know which one to go for? What makes a good captioning company?
So what makes a good captioning company?
Three things: Speed, accuracy and experience.
Speed is important when live captioning. Live captioning is when someone speaks, someone else types what they are saying, and a third person reads what has been typed, all in real time. Stenographers can type up to 300 words per minute, around three times faster than a regular typist.
Accuracy is usually the payoff as the speed increases, but a good captioner can do both. As a rule of thumb, accuracy is more important than speed, and is especially crucial in legal settings, such as contract negotiations, courtrooms or legal dispositions.
Experience is the one thing that cannot be bought or faked. A good reputation also comes with experience – but only if you earn it.
