Live news localization FAQ
How natural is live AI dubbing?
It keeps the speaker’s tone, pacing and emotion in real time, with 900+ unique voices tuned for the timing of live news.
How do you keep names and places accurate?
Custom dictionaries and LLM-driven proper-noun handling are taught your terminology so they come through correctly on air.
How many languages can run at once?
Multiple simultaneously from one source: translated subtitles and dubbing together. We also take on hard-to-source languages.
What about reliability on a 24/7 feed?
Dual-pipeline backup channels provide a redundant pipe, backed by 99.99% uptime and a 24/7 support team on live feeds.
How much latency does it add?
For same-language SRT captions, SyncWords can add as little as half a second to the video path while caption delay typically stays under two seconds.
How fast can we get to air?
Weeks, not years. LRT went from AWS referral to production in weeks; expansions take 8–16 weeks once integrated.
Do you integrate with AWS?
Yes, deeply. AWS Elemental MediaConnect carries dual independent SRT streams for redundancy, MediaLive and MediaPackage handle encoding and packaging with DVR preserved, and CloudFront publishes to your audience. SyncWords is also available on AWS Marketplace.
Does it also cover FCC/EU accessibility requirements?
Yes. EIA-608 and WebVTT same-language captions run alongside the localization, helping you meet FCC and EU accessibility requirements.
Is there an API?
Yes. Map each channel once, then schedule newscasts, start breaking coverage, change language outputs and manage newsroom terminology from your own systems.
How is it priced?
Pricing is usage-based and charged per language and output, with no per-channel licence. The effective hourly rate falls as committed volume rises.
