Trance: AI-Enabled Captioning, Transcription, and Translation
Digital Nirvana’s Trance brings the AI advantage to your transcription, captioning, and translation workflows.
Trance is a cloud-based, enterprise-level SaaS platform, accessible from any web-enabled computer to auto-generate transcripts, create closed captions and translate text into more than 100 different languages.
Digital Nirvana leverages two decades of speech-to-text and knowledge management expertise to deliver greater productivity, shorter turnaround times, and improve both the speed and accuracy of the captioning process – all in an easy-to-use interface.
Trance- Automated Cloud-Based Captioning and Text Localization Workflow
Digital Nirvana’s Trance is an enterprise-level, cloud-based transcription, closed captioning, and translation workflow that brings significant new efficiencies to captioning and subtitling workflows. With a cloud-based architecture, an integrated automatic speech-to-text (STT) engine, and an easy-to-use interface, Trance orchestrates, automates, and streamlines critical processes for new levels of accuracy, quality and efficiency. Captions can be generated per presets to conform with style guides per the requirement of digital publishers.
Leveraging integration with an advanced STT engine, Trance automatically generates transcripts — in multiple languages, when needed — for every work item, delivering productivity improvements up to 50% compared to conventional desktop applications. Trance delivers further gains by centralizing workflows such as job allocation, caption edits, role assignment, report generation, and status monitoring for streamlined project management.
Trance’s easy-to-use browser-based interface speeds up the process of reviewing STT content, and the platform’s cloud-based architecture helps users access content from anywhere while eliminating the need for individual software installs and updates. Plus, Trance has the ability to ingest Avid assets directly for caption generation and/or metadata enhancement. Users can access media assets from cloud storage, Avid Media Central, SFTP, local servers, or via an API, and the final output can be automatically converted into multiple sidecar formats and sent to predefined destinations.
