Video & Audio

Accessibility that includes everyone

SDH captions that go beyond dialogue — capturing sound effects, music cues, and speaker identities for a fully inclusive viewing experience.

How it works

1

Submit video content

Provide your video file or URL. Ollang transcribes speech and detects non-speech audio events.

2

SDH enrichment

Sound effects, speaker identifiers, and music cues are added as caption events alongside dialogue.

3

Accessible output

Receive subtitle files or burned-in captions that meet WCAG and broadcast accessibility standards.
