I have had a very complicated hearing journey from hearing to ski slope hearing to deafness. Hearing aids and cochlear implants - I’ve tried them all. All great tools and technology, which is what these glasses are- a great tool. I find them very helpful in situations that I struggle in. Are they a miracle to being hearing impaired or deaf? No but I think anyone would benefit if they are hearing impaired and need more confidence.

The smile on my dad’s face!!!!!
My 80 year old dad got his new Captify glasses a few weeks ago…and I think both he and I were super excited but also a bit tentative that something like them would actually work for him. He has tried everything (hearing aids, recordings etc) and is severely hard of hearing.
We just had a family gathering last night (his first with his Captify glasses). He was with his wife, daughter, granddaughter, son in law (all adults) and two toddler great grandchildren for 3 hours. And…he got to be an active participant in every conversation…even with the littles and their books that made animal sounds! It was amazing!!! I stood back and cried as I got the honor of watching my 80 year old dad have an adult conversation with his granddaughter (likely his favorite person in the world), at real speed, in real time and with a smile on his face! It’s been TOO long since he has been able to do that!!!
Thank you for giving life back to those who have struggled with their hearing far too long. He figured out how to use them all on his own (who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks..haha) and they are SUCH a blessing!

Amazing Product!
I have profound hearing loss. I've been using hearing aids for eleven years with very little success. I've only had my Captify Pro glasses for a little over a week now, and the initial results are nothing short of incredible! My wife no longer has to repeat herself three and four times for me to understand what she is saying. I've used them in group settings and in restaurants. So far, they have been flawless. While I'm still going through a bit of a learning curve, these glasses have been a game changer for me! The only slight negative is that I haven't been getting much more than 2-2.5 hours of use before needing a recharge. The upside is that they do recharge to full within 30-35 minutes. Regardless, I do strongly recommend the Captify Pro glasses to anyone who is struggling with hearing loss... they are much better than hearing aids!

Marvelous Product and Support
I am very excited about this product. I look forward to this extra help for communicating with those around me.
The support experience has been the best I have ever had with any company. I can be a bit slow in learning new touch sensitive devices. Isabelle stayed right with me until she could tell I was getting the knack of using this new product.
Thank you, all!

Excellent start
Excellent start. Need more experience navigating the buttons, but I know how things work now.

Life-Altering Product for the Hearing Impaired
I'd like to start by informing that I am now the middle between 60 and 70, and my hearing impairment was diagnosed around 5 after a birth accident (forceps) and the mumps. Left ear off the charts profound never aided entire life. Right ear started off mild to moderate, and then aggressively declined to almost profound as well. These glasses are life-altering for me. NEVER did I ever have any chance to understand socially, EVER. I opted to wait for the pro version which was delivered to me on the 9th, and in time for a family wedding on the 14th. My experience, while not 100% perfect, was ASTOUNDING. Tom is an incredible advocate, and understands personally the struggles of those who are impaired and how hard it is to connect with people. And that is exactly what these glasses allow me to do, connect in real time with people around me. What I have missing all these years, when I stop to think about it, somewhat saddens me. However, my future looks so good with these glasses. Support is outstanding, this is a company that CARES about its customers. If you are hearing impaired and considering glasses, do not hesitate about trying a pair from Captify. You will not be disappointed.

Isabelle is a great instructor.
Isabelle is a great instructor and very patient. She has the gift of explaining and having a gracious personality as well. I was able to meet with her on Zoom and share my iPhone screen so she could see the Captify App as we were going through the steps. That made a huge difference in communicating. I appreciated using that system for Captify support and I was thankful that Captify allowed the use of Zoom.

High Five for Tom Pritsky
I recently purchased Captify Pro glasses for my work meetings, because I was missing out a lot of information. These glasses with the directional mics are really a great investment at a great price compared to the Xander glasses. The transcription feature even catches door bells, whistles and drawers closing... even a yawn. Perfect! Even has a language translate feature in about 5 common languages. The glasses last 4 hours before a quick 40 minute recharge; the charging function and menu are very simplistic and the instructions are straightforward, came packaged very well and much quicker than the 4 weeks ship time. Tom has done wonders for people with challenged hearing and as a user of Captify Pro glasses, I'm very impressed.. Customer support is phenomenal and available to assist always. I'm so thankful for this opportunity to improve the quality of my life. Thank you Tom and the developers!!!
