New York, New York–(Newsfile Corp. – March 14, 2023) – OpenExchange, the global leader in professionally managed virtual meetings and events, has announced an integrated partnership with Aiera, the leading investor event intelligence and speech technology workflow platform. OpenExchange’s existing webcasting and live-streaming solutions will now offer Aiera’s industry-leading live event transcription services natively within its video conferencing experience. The partnership will also explore the introduction of large language modeling for auto-summarization and Q&A tooling, which are new features offered across the Aiera platform.

“Traditionally, live transcription technology has lacked the speed and accuracy to be truly useful in meetings that are heavy in industry jargon or technical terminology,” said Herb Werth, Chief Product Officer of OpenExchange. “Aiera’s ultra high quality live transcription, which can be human-enhanced in near-real-time and synchronized with live video, creates an experience for the viewer that not only makes video content easier to consume, but also adds a level of efficiency in finding relevant content that hasn’t been possible until now.”

A few of the benefits to viewers and listeners:

• Live Transcription: Follow along with truly live word-for-word event transcription via Aiera’s financially-trained ASR model with 97%+ accuracy – adding another layer of visibility and insight to OpenExchange’s video presentations.
• Search: Seamlessly surface key mentions and jump across them while the event is happening live, or after it concludes – saving time by eliminating the need to comb through video replays or static PDF transcripts.
• Variety of Event Coverage: Aiera’s live transcription, search, and discovery tooling can be applied to various video event types hosted by OpenExchange, including public conference presentations and across all of OETV.
• Content Discoverability: For viewers looking to assess certain themes across OpenExchange’s variety of video content, adding Aiera’s textual layer of transcription and search makes key topics more easily discoverable. Auto-summarization and Q&A that leverages Aiera’s generative AI capabilities stands to be further enhancement.
• Human Editing: For the companies hosting events with OpenExchange, Aiera offers human editing services to deliver publishable-quality transcripts after the events conclude, which can be distributed at the company’s discretion or hosted on their IR website.

“Live event data and analysis is an evolving, critical part of the future of finance and corporate strategy,” said Bryan Healey, CTO of Aiera. “Instant access, searchability, and discoverability of real time information is quickly becoming central to how we make decisions. Integration with OpenExchange is a critical step within our video evolution, and we’re thrilled to be a part of it.”
