Accessibility
TenStreaming is built to be usable by everyone — including attendees who rely on assistive technology.
Our commitment
We target WCAG 2.1 AA across the platform — registration, lobby, live rooms, and replays. Accessibility is part of our engineering standard: every interactive component ships against a documented checklist, and automated WCAG checks run in our test suite.
Accessibility features
- Live captions during sessions, with adjustable size, position, and contrast.
- Real-time caption translation into nine languages (when enabled by the organizer).
- A dedicated, always-visible sign language interpreter video that attendees can move and resize.
- Screen-reader announcements for live session events — session start and end, polls, breakout rooms, and more.
- Full keyboard operation with a shortcut help dialog (press ?).
- Reduced-motion and high-contrast modes that follow your system settings, with in-app overrides.
- Post-event transcripts and closed captions on replays.
Assistive technologies we test with
- VoiceOver with Safari (macOS and iOS)
- NVDA with Chrome (Windows)
- JAWS with Chrome (Windows)
- Keyboard-only navigation (no pointer)
Known limitations
We list these honestly and are working through them:
- In-room chat, Q&A, and tech support are newly released; a dedicated screen-reader pass for them is scheduled.
- Some third-party components (the schedule calendar and the email template editor) inherit their vendors' keyboard support.
- Speakers joining via RTMP ingest cannot be individually labeled in live captions.
- Our VPAT is in progress and will be published after the formal third-party audit.
VPAT
A VPAT 2.4 (WCAG) conformance report is being prepared following a formal audit and will be available for download on this page. Enterprise and government buyers who need it sooner can contact us.
