This streamlined process allows you to spend more time focusing on teaching and less on administrative tasks.

Enhanced Accessibility

With our new World Language captions and audio overlay add-on, Screencastify has taken accessibility to the next level. Parents can translate the video content into over 85 languages, breaking down language barriers and ensuring that all families, regardless of their primary language, can stay informed.
