Direct Video Calling (DVC) is revolutionizing customer service by enabling direct, natural communication in American Sign Language (ASL) between users and support staff. This inclusive technology eliminates the need for third-party interpreters, ensuring a seamless experience for the deaf and hard-of-hearing community. With successful adoption by major organizations and government agencies, DVC is setting new standards for accessibility.
