OpenTech welcomes T-Meeting and spotlights its accessibility mission
OpenTech spoke with T-Meeting founder Max Tairi about accessible communication, inclusive technology, and the continued development of EaseAccess24.
OpenTech has welcomed T-Meeting to its community with an interview featuring founder Max Tairi. Drawing on more than 25 years in accessible communication, Max discusses a practical measure of progress: whether technology helps someone do more independently.
“AI isn't the goal. What matters is what it can do for the person.”
Max Tairi, in his interview with OpenTech
The conversation introduces TERA, which combines regular telephone calls with real-time captioning, text-to-speech, and translation. The person receiving the call does not need the same app. That detail matters: accessible communication needs to reach the people, businesses, and services someone already contacts.
Max also explains why T-Meeting joined OpenTech’s community in Skåne. It creates opportunities to connect experience in accessibility with expertise in software, AI, research, and business. Those conversations can help turn a technical possibility into something useful in daily life.
Looking ahead, the interview highlights further development of TERA, EaseAccess24 for digital accessibility, and SeeForYou for people with visual impairments.
For us at EaseAccess24, the connection is clear. A website and a telephone call are different experiences, but both should give people the opportunity to participate on their own terms. We’re pleased to see that shared purpose at the centre of OpenTech’s welcome.
