Workflows

  1. 01

    Human captioning

    CART writers work the way they already work: your machine, your CAT software, our delivery. The platform is free for individual captioners and the agencies that book them.

    AI Captions & Translations

    RTMP, SRT, raw audio, or a bot in the meeting. 100+ languages. Multiple AI models behind one endpoint, because no single vendor wins on every language.

    Video Encoding

    Custom cloud video encoder: CEA-608/708 into RTMP for broadcast and YouTube, multi-track SRT for several languages in one stream, HLS tuned for scale. Stream anywhere you already stream.

    AI Dubbing

    Speech-to-speech, so the voice never round-trips through text. Real-time, low latency, priced for events that prefer not to fund an interpreter booth.

AI Proofreader

An industry-first safeguard that learns the context of your event and corrects live captions before the audience sees them — names, jargon, and the line that was never meant to be funny.

Context:

To be or not tobe, that is the congestion.

Captions, translations, and AI dubbing — delivered the way the room actually watches.

For several years we have been searching…

For several years we have been searching for a solution where we could do closed captions, using the broadcast standard CEA 608-708 with human captioners, to Youtube Live. Line-21 has been the first service provider, out of quite a few, that was able to reliably make this work.

The staff has been incredibly service minded and agile when problems has arisen or when we’ve had requests out of the ordinary. We are also in joint development for new services that are required in our local market. Thus far we are very happy with our cooperation!

Exceptional Partner for Our Business

We've had an outstanding experience working with Line 21. From day one, they've demonstrated professionalism and delivered a service that clearly puts the customer first.

What really sets them apart is their team. Paul and Fabrizio are incredibly communicative, transparent, and open throughout every stage of our collaboration. They're responsive, proactive, and make it easy to stay aligned on goals and deliverables.

Line 21 has proven to be more than just a client; they're a true partner. They've made collaboration simple and effective, which is exactly what you want when working with an external team. I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and professional partner.

Nous avons travaillé avec Line21 dans…

Nous avons travaillé avec Line21 dans le cadre du sous-titrage multilingue d'un événement interne. Toute l'équipe s'est montrée disponible et réactive et l'événement fût un grand succès grâce à la qualité du sous-titrage. Je ne peux que recommander Line21!
