  • Kaltura REACH uses automated speech recognition (ASR) to recognize words spoken in your video and provide machine-based captions for your video. Kaltura REACH captions are typically 75-85% accurate and can improve over time as the program adapts to learn your voice. Kaltura REACH also provides an editor to revise and improve the accuracy of your video captions. Any instructor can request machine captions; just make sure that you remember to edit the captions for accuracy.

    Please note that any SAS accommodations for captioning will go through the Student Accessibility Offices for professional captioning.
