Be My Eyes offers two desktop experiences: a free app and a paid Workplace subscription. This article explains what each includes so you know what to expect.
The free Be My Eyes desktop app
The free app is available for Windows and gives any Be My Eyes user access to:
- Be My AI — upload or paste any image for an instant AI description
- Call a Volunteer — connect with a sighted volunteer via webcam
No subscription required. Download it from bemyeyes.com/download.
Be My Eyes Workplace (paid)
Workplace is a paid tier built on top of the free app, designed for blind and low-vision employees who need more powerful tools at work. It adds:
- Workplace AI — AI assistance optimized for workplace documents, forms, and screens
- Workplace Reader — reads documents, PDFs, and forms aloud with navigation
- Workplace Connect — connects blind and low-vision employees with trained, company-specific sighted agents instead of community volunteers
- Groups — create a trusted team of colleagues for direct calls
Which one do I have?
If your company hasn't set up a Workplace subscription, you have the free app.
If you're not sure, check with your manager or IT administrator.
How to get Workplace
Workplace is sold to organizations, not individuals. If you think your company should have Workplace access, ask your manager or request a demo.
