Karasch & Associates: Live Captioning (CART), American Sign Language (ASL), Transcription

Karasch has spent more than 45 years making communication accessible. Based in West Chester, PA, the company provides live CART captioning, American Sign Language interpreting, and transcription services to organizations across the United States. For businesses, institutions, and government agencies that need dependable accessibility support, Karasch functions as a full-service outsourcing partner, handling the people, credentials, and coordination behind every session. The service portfolio covers the full range of communication access needs. CART (Communication Access Realtime Translation) delivers word-for-word live captions in real time, available both on-site and remotely. ASL interpreting is staffed by more than 361 RID-certified interpreters who work in person or connect via remote platforms. Transcription converts recorded or live audio into precise written records. Karasch also provides audio description and multiple specialized captioning formats, making it practical for clients to consolidate their accessibility work with one vendor rather than managing several disconnected providers. The client base spans a wide range of sectors. Fortune 500 corporations use Karasch for large-scale accessibility programs. Local school districts bring the team in for classroom and student support. Legal professionals rely on Karasch captioners and interpreters for depositions, hearings, and courtroom proceedings. In just five years, the company has completed more than 56,143 accessible sessions for over 3,953 clients, a track record that reflects consistent demand from education, legal, and corporate clients alike. The defining characteristic of this back-office accessibility operation is its commitment to human professionals. Karasch employs 100% human captioners and interpreters with no AI involvement in service delivery. The network includes more than 767 certified CART captioners and over 361 RID-certified ASL interpreters. In environments where accuracy carries legal or regulatory weight, that distinction matters considerably, and it sets Karasch apart from providers that rely on automated captioning tools. Organizations looking to outsource their accessibility and communication access requirements will find a responsive team at Karasch. The company replies to new inquiries within minutes.
