Technoleads (Technoleads Services Inc.) makes culture accessible to blind and visually impaired people in the museum sector (including galleries, science centers, libraries and archives), by providing audio description services under the elokutio™ brand.

Audio description (AD) involves describing key visual elements of media content as well as physical objects and experiences, while preserving the original work. We also provide additional context for museum objects and exhibition spaces, including audio tours and descriptive introductions, to make exhibitions and collections accessible, both on site and online.

In consultation with arts and culture experts, our authors use cutting-edge technology and strive to share accurate representations of museum objects to create inclusive and enriching experiences for all, in multiple languages. Technoleads advocates for the democratization of audio description and actively collaborates with museum teams and associations representing the blind and visually impaired community to achieve greater inclusion.
