Videoconference for deaf spanish speakers?

Hi folks,

I am wondering if my knowledge is out of date, and thought showing my  
ignorance might get me to check, if someone else doesn't know the answer.

a request in a private forum that is generalist but with a heavy presence
of people in medicine asked for information about videoconference systems
that will work for deaf people, in spanish.

The Spanish Centre for Captioning and Audio-description have a helpful
article
https://www.cesya.es/articulos/accesibilidad-auditiva-en-plataformas-de-videoconferencia
but the short answer seems to be "none of the autocaptioning works in
Spanish", but Zoom allows someone to be identified as a "captioner"
(much like the way W3C has been using IRC in teleconferences for the
last quarter-century, but without the supporting tools we have).

I wonder if anyone here can add to this.

I'll also report here with a summary of that discussion, which also linked

- Visualfy https://www.visualfy.com/es - "a technology that can notify
deaf people of various events"das de diferentes eventos

- Ava https://es.ava.me/ An app that allows real-time conversation
transcription

cheers
