Problem
Deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals face significant barriers to accessing digital content and services that are primarily designed for spoken and written language. Traditional sign language interpretation is expensive, difficult to scale, and often unavailable in real-time, leaving 70M+ Deaf individuals worldwide with limited access to information, education, and entertainment.
Solution
FingerDance provides AI-powered sign language avatars that translate text and voice into natural, human-like sign language video in real time. Unlike simple word-to-sign mapping, the platform's proprietary LLM-based model understands sign language grammar, context, and cultural nuances, capturing facial expressions, lip movements, and emotional tone that are essential for accurate communication. The avatars support multiple sign language systems including ASL, CSL, and SgSL, enabling organizations to create accessible content at scale. The company offers SignGen for transforming text and voice into professional sign language videos and SignCopilot, an AI-powered companion for adding instant sign language subtitles to websites and videos.
Target Audience
Primary customers are media companies, educational institutions, government agencies, and enterprises that need to make their digital content and services accessible to Deaf and hard-of-hearing audiences at scale.
