We partnered with SignAble to bring their vision of empowering the deaf and hard-of-hearing community to life-an app that facilitates real-time communication through video and voice interaction with sign language interpreters. The goal was simple: provide accessible, on-demand communication for users anywhere, anytime, to foster greater independence and inclusivity. By developing a seamless mobile application with Video Relay Services (VRS), we helped SignAble create a scalable platform that enables real-time communication with no specialized hardware needed.

Vision

SignAble’s mission was to bridge the communication gap for deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals by offering instant access to sign language interpreters through a user-friendly mobile app. The aim was to provide real-time communication without requiring specialized hardware, enhancing independence and enabling users to connect with others effortlessly.

The challenge

Deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals faced barriers to real-time communication due to limited access to interpreters and the lack of accessible tools that worked without specialized hardware.

The solution

SignAble developed a mobile application with real-time video and voice calling, secure backend integration, and an intuitive interface, enabling users to connect instantly with sign language interpreters from anywhere.
