It is available as a desktop and web-based application and is designed to work alongside common video conferencing tools such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Webex, and Google Meet, as well as on-site and hybrid events. The company states it does not store voice data and gives users control to delete transcripts. Akkadu targets event organizers, conferences, corporate meetings, universities, content creators, and language service providers who need multilingual accessibility. It is offered on a pay-as-you-go hourly model with a free limited demo tier.
