[Athen] Greenbutton captioning service

[Alexa Schriempf]

Hi Allison,

I do not have experience with Greenbutton specifically, but have read the
website very carefully, particularly its FAQ page. It seems like it would
be most useful when used in combination with a caption editor like
Synchrimedia, to help reduce time and overhead by creating a "rough draft"
to polish up. From the FAQ, "What are some high value MAVIS scenarios?",
the answer is: "A company that wants to reduce the cost of closed
captioning by getting a “draft” closed caption to start with."

Not a bad idea. But why not just use the free Dragon Dictate app on an iPad
to create the starter rough draft, to then edit and polish up?
