Sensory Scribe for Windows 11 is a simple, secure transcription and assistive note-taking tool designed for live events like lectures, seminars, meetings, and tutorials. Built for Windows 11, it uses Microsoft’s Live Captions accessibility feature to provide instant, offline transcription – no internet connection required. While most transcription tools rely on cloud-based services, Sensory Scribe runs entirely on your device. That means no waiting for uploads or risking sensitive data – just accurate, real-time captions and saved audio files you can review later.
Key Benefits
- Provides live captioning, increasing cognition (attention span, engagement, understanding and information recall) for many neurodivergent, disabled students, and individuals with hearing loss.
- Scribe records audio so students can focus on what is being said rather than taking notes. Anxiety about writing is reduced so engagement with the speaker is increased.
- At key points coloured markers can be added so it’s easy to revisit afterwards. Any notes will be added alongside the uploaded slides and annotations can be made on the slides to re-enforce learning and creating rich, multi-sensory notes to refer back to.
- After the session, students can listen back at a speed to suit their needs. Searchable transcripts help to find key concepts and information, ensuring nothing is missed.
- All audio, transcription and other content stay locally on the user’s device with nothing stored in the cloud. This means that Sensory Scribe can be used to record confidential and sensitive information with no third-party data processing.
