Ai-Media
Company Acquisitions and Mergers
Over the years, Ai-Media has expanded its impact by acquiring and merging with other leading companies in the technology and captioning field. Learn about these bright stars below!
EEG Enterprises
Acquired April 2021
EEG is a forward-looking video technology company with a focus on innovative cloud workflow products for closed captioning, accessibility, and metadata processing applications. Its industry-leading line of professional video equipment and software powers transcription applications in broadcasting, video post-production, streaming media, stadiums, government and education. iCap and its related cloud services are entrusted with connecting the world’s most valuable entertainment content live to thousands of captioners daily.
Caption Access
Merged December 2020
Caption Access is owned and run by people who are deaf and hard-of-hearing. They know what first-class captioning and sign language interpretation means, and how important it is to the people who use them.
Perhaps this is the reason for their success. Nine years after launching, in 2020, CaptionAccess had six full-time staff including Bill’s wife Karen, a nonpareil advisor and strategist, and revenues of $1.3 million. By June 2021, they were tracking to $2.1 million.

With decades of industry experience, Caption IT has earned a reputation for delivering exceptionally high-quality captioning outcomes at every event.
