Unlock world-class live captioning, subtitling and AI voice translations in over 100 languages for your live stream directly in PheedLoop using SyncWords' embeddable player. The process is simple. Reach out to SyncWords to schedule your event. We will set everything up in our system, give you the RTMP URL and key to send your stream to as well as provide the player to add in to PheedLoop.
Schedule your event with SyncWords
Reach out to your SyncWords representative or visit our PheedLoop page to get in touch with us and provide your event information. This typically includes things like:
- The date of your event
- The number of sessions that need captions, along with the start and end time of each - you can use our scheduling template attachment located at the bottom of the page.
- The language the presenter(s) will speak during the live stream
- The language(s) captions should be translated to and if you want to include audio translations or not
One of our team members will reach out to confirm everything and answer any questions you may have.
Send your Stream to SyncWords
