Live AI captioning

Go beyond LinkedIn’s English-only closed captions. Embed EIA-608 captions in the seven languages the standard supports, including English, Spanish, French, Portuguese and Italian, into your LinkedIn Live. Or offer real-time captions on a standalone page.

Bring your own captioner

Prefer a professional captioner for marquee streams? Bring your own: caption ingest from standard steno software runs over a direct EIA-608 Control-A connection.

Live AI subtitling

LinkedIn Live captioning FAQ

Why go beyond LinkedIn’s built-in captions?

LinkedIn’s Live captions are English-only. Routing your stream through SyncWords lets you caption in other source languages and add translated subtitles, so you reach a wider, multilingual audience. You can also add custom dictionaries and glossaries to improve the accuracy of your captions and subtitles.

What streaming tools are supported?

Any RTMP(S) tool used for LinkedIn Live, including StreamYard, Restream, Vimeo, OBS Studio and others. You keep your current setup and point its output at SyncWords.

Can I use human (CART) captioners?

Yes , bring your own captioner. SyncWords ingests captions from standard steno software over a direct EIA-608 Control-A connection. Live sessions are pre-scheduled.

What languages are supported?

LinkedIn Live supports embedded EIA-608 captions for languages using a Latin-based character set such as English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, and Italian. SyncWords can also share translated subtitles through a standalone page.

Can we add AI dubbed audio to a LinkedIn Live?

Yes. Vocalics dubs live news, sports and narrated programming into 86 languages in real time, with voice transfer carrying the speaker's tone, pacing and emotion across 38 of them. Each dubbed language is delivered as its own stream you publish alongside the original.
