From headset to heads-up in under three seconds.
CommsWatch sits quietly on your intercom, turns speech into text, understands it in context, and speaks up only when it should.
The decision step is the product: routine traffic goes into the log, and only real issues continue to the engineer.
Plugs in like another beltpack, but it never talks.
Connect over Dante/AES67, a matrix port, or analog 4-wire through an audio interface. Choose channels from a simple checklist mirrored from your matrix.
Every word, timestamped, per channel.
Speech recognition tuned for headset audio, crosstalk and production vocabulary: “standby,” “go,” cue numbers, camera calls.
Context, not keywords.
An AI model reads each line against what came before it. “Camera 6, you there?” is routine once. Asked three times with no answer, it’s a problem.
Quiet by default. Loud when it counts.
Below your threshold, it’s logged and searchable. Above it, you get an alert with the clip, the transcript and the reason, wherever you work.
Four categories. Clear rules.
| Category | Example phrases | Not flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Technical | “You’re breaking up” · “I’ve lost you” · “No program in my ear” | A single “say again” on a noisy line |
| Coordination | Unanswered calls · “Who has the stage manager?” · Missed standby | Routine cue calls and “copy that” |
| Repetition | Same request 3+ times within a short window | Normal countdowns (“ten, nine, eight…”) |
| Safety | “Hold” · “Stop” · “Medic” · “Clear the stage” | Nothing. Safety language is always escalated. |
