Aira

Aira provides on-demand visual interpretation for blind and low-vision users by connecting them with trained human agents through a mobile app or web interface. When a user needs visual information, they can request an agent who accesses their camera feed and describes what they see in real time. This might involve reading text, identifying objects, navigating unfamiliar spaces, or checking visual details during everyday tasks. The service combines human expertise with AI routing and scheduling to match users with agents quickly. It connects what screen readers can do and situations where human eyes and contextual understanding are needed, such as reading restaurant menus, shopping in stores, or understanding visual information in documents.
