Our company was funded in part by a Department of Education Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant to explore more cost-efficient ways to automate the captioning process. Leveraging our leading-edge speech processing and pattern identification software, Automatic Sync Technologies developed CaptionSync, offering clients with solutions for synchronized multimedia with quick turnaround and unsurpassed quality.
CaptionSync, the automated system used to generate captions is one of the most state-of-the art systems for rapidly generating captions and subtitles for today’s media formats. With a library of over 40 caption formats, including the popular Flash, Silverlight, YouTube, Windows Media and QuickTime, AST can deliver captions for broadcast and web media simultaneously with a single job submission. When new media formats are launched, AST generally has caption outputs for such formats available immediately. Our system is designed to deliver captions in minutes, if you have a transcript. If you don’t have a transcript, our transcription agents are available 24/7 to create a high-quality transcript to be used for generating captions or as an additional instructional or informational media type. Transcripts and captions can be leveraged for searching within videos, making the videos far more useful and discoverable.
Today Automatic Sync Technologies is a leading provider of automated captioning, audio synchronization, and audio/video search tools for webcasting, DVD, and broadcasting applications, serving over 1,000 clients. AST has clients across the world, including many in the United States, Canada, Europe, Japan, and Australia.
