For wards, branches & stakes
Captions for every
voice in your ward
Real-time bilingual captions for sacrament meeting, stake conference, ward council, and any Sunday gathering. The Latter-day Saint glossary — Padre Celestial, Sociedad de Socorro, Cuórum de Élderes — is built in, so doctrinal terms never drift.
Sunday-ready in
under a minute.
One operator, one laptop, the chapel's existing PA. That's it.
Plug in the pulpit mic
A laptop in the clerk's office, an audio cable from the building's PA system, and a Chrome browser. Most wards already have everything they need.
Press start & share the link
Captions begin within seconds. Share a link with Spanish-speaking members or project the QR code on a back-of-chapel screen.
Members read on their phones
Each member picks their language and font size. The same link works for stake conference, ward council, fast and testimony — anything with a mic.
The LDS glossary
"Heavenly Father" — not a literal mistranslation.
Generic translation engines turn LDS English into something members don't recognize. CaptionCast applies a curated glossary of doctrinal terms before and after the model so the Spanish your Spanish-speakers hear is the Spanish the Church publishes.
We built it for Latter-day Saint wards specifically — but it works just as well for any congregation that wants Sunday-vocabulary handled with care.

From wards already using it
Real church technology specialists. Initials and city, by request.
We used to have a volunteer whisper-translating from the front of the room. Now our Spanish-speaking members read along on their phones. Two of our older sisters cried after their first sacrament meeting with it.

Stake conference was the test. We projected the QR code on the screen below the speaker. About thirty people scanned it within the first minute. Setup was honestly easier than the projector.

The doctrinal terms come out right. "Padre Celestial," "Sociedad de Socorro," "Cuórum de Élderes" — that's what made our branch president sign off. He didn't want anything that mangled scripture.

Questions wards ask first
Practical answers, not legal boilerplate.
Yes — that's the whole point of the LDS glossary. "Heavenly Father" becomes "Padre Celestial," "the Atonement" becomes "la Expiación," "sacrament meeting" becomes "reunión sacramental." The glossary is applied before and after the translation model, so the doctrinal terms never drift.
A laptop running Chrome or Edge, plus a clean audio source. The cleanest signal comes from a 1/4" or 3.5mm line-out from the building's amplifier. A USB audio interface ($20–40) bridges that into the laptop. Wireless mics work too, but a wired pulpit feed is the most reliable.
That's a decision for your bishopric or stake presidency — but the experience is unobtrusive. Members read silently on their own phones; nothing displays at the front of the chapel unless you want it to. Several wards use it through the entire meeting block, including the sacrament itself.
Audio and transcripts are stored so members who missed the meeting can read or replay later. You can disable recording per meeting, or delete a session at any time from the meeting detail page. Audio is encrypted in transit and at rest.

30 free minutes. No credit card. About one sacrament meeting's worth.
