Standard transcriptions only capture spoken words. SDH (Subtitles for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing) provides a complete experience by also describing important non-dialogue audio cues like [tense music] or [door slams], and identifying who is speaking. This is essential for full comprehension and meeting accessibility standards.

Our AI performs Speaker Identification, where it analyzes audio patterns to clearly distinguish between different speakers in the video and labels their speech segments accordingly. This eliminates confusion when multiple people are talking.

This refers to the comprehensive tagging of non-dialogue sounds. The AI identifies and labels crucial sound effects, music, and other audio elements that contribute to the mood and story, which would otherwise be missed by a hard-of-hearing audience.

Besides making your content more inclusive, having a full SDH file improves SEO and Discoverability. The rich text is indexed by search engines, making your video more likely to be found. Furthermore, inclusive content is more likely to be watched, shared, and trusted by viewers, leading to improved engagement.

Our SDH service provides downloadable files in popular, compliance-ready formats like SRT and JSON. This ensures they are ready for immediate use across various platforms and for different technical workflows.
