Subtitle questions worth asking
What is live subtitling?
Live subtitling translates what is said in a live program into subtitles in other languages while the program is on air. SyncWords transcribes the live audio, translates it in real time into any of 163 subtitle languages, and delivers each language where your audience watches: inside the stream as WebVTT, Teletext or DVB subtitles, on attendee phones through the caption widget, or as files after the session.
How fast is the translation?
In real time. Viewers and attendees read along as the speaker talks.
Can we start with two languages and add more later?
Yes. Add or remove languages as your distribution changes. Each language is billed separately, so you can expand without changing the rest of the workflow.
Which languages are available?
