CapturaTalk is a ground-breaking portable solution for people with reading difficulties, allowing them to photograph text and have it read to them wherever they are.

Capture information and hear instant playback on the move

CapturaTalk will help you to capture essential information and understand text wherever you are.

Take a photo of text that you need to read; perhaps from a ticket, information board or sign to help you find your way, or from a set of instructions you need to understand - CapturaTalk will scan the photograph, recognise the text and read the information aloud to you. It will also save the scanned file for future reference.

CapturaTalk also enables you to listen to text read aloud from an electronic document or email stored on your smartphone. The possibilities are totally up to you.

Think for a moment how this could help you …

Importantly, this is a simple and discreet solution that can be of enormous benefit for those who struggle with reading, with dyslexia or visual impairments, or who are learning the English language.

This really is a convenient and easy-to-use solution that you can get started with straight away.
