Aira Access

Aira is a visual interpreting service that connects people who are blind or have low vision with trained, sighted agents through a smartphone app. Using the phone's camera, agents provide real-time verbal descriptions of surroundings, help with navigation, and read documents aloud. Aira Access Partners—including airports, retailers, and universities—provide free minutes to users within their physical locations or for specific digital services. The service is available 24/7 and supports both English and Spanish. Agents undergo extensive training to provide safe and effective orientation assistance.
