ScribeMe
About the startup
ScribeMe is an AI-powered accessibility platform designed to help people who are blind and visually impaired access, understand, and interact with both digital and real-world content more independently. At its core, the app uses advanced AI to convert visual material — like PDFs, PowerPoint presentations, and photos — into fully accessible content by extracting text with high accuracy, preserving document structure (such as headings, lists, and tables), and generating detailed alt text for images. Users can also ask natural language questions about their documents to get summaries or deeper insights, making complex files easier to navigate and comprehend. \r\n\r\nA standout capability of ScribeMe is Live Assist, the world’s first real-time AI video assistant built for blind and visually impaired users. With a single tap, Live Assist transforms a device’s camera into an intelligent guide that describes surroundings, identifies objects, reads text, and helps users understand their environment instantly, giving practical context while on the move and supporting greater independence in everyday tasks.
