Profuz Digital unveils full-scale AI media management capabilities

For broadcasters looking for more AI media management capabilities at IBC2024, Profuz Digital is offering the enhanced editions of its Profuz LAPIS and SubtitleNEXT systems.

At booth 8.A88, visitors can check out the many new AI features in Profuz Digital, including semantic search features, advanced speech-to-text and text-to-speech capabilities, and much more. 

The LAPIS system is designed with the capability to connect to multiple local or cloud AI engines in order to enhance content and data processing. These enhancements include automatic metadata extraction from audiovisual content such as face recognition within the client’s own database, object recognition, brand recognition, imaging and audio automatic annotation, description and classification. 

LAPIS can also extract text from video and images, as well as refine audio transcription, which includes speech to text processing in all languages; translation from audio and much more.

SubtitleNEXT is the popular localisation platform used for offline and real-time captioning that supports all media formats. It is already being used by many broadcasters, studios and language service providers. 

The latest version now integrates audio description capabilities into its existing subtitles preparation tool.  Organisations that have invested in the SubtitleNEXT system include EMG, where SubtitleNEXT was used for the localisation of well-known TV series such as Big Little Lies, Dexter: New Blood, and HBO productions such as Euphoria.

Ivanka Vassileva, CEO of Profuz Digital, said, “Broadcasters are having to look at new ways of tackling challenges, and it is vital that our customers are well supported.

“We are excited to once again be a part of IBC as an exhibitor of the broadcast media industry’s premier event. We look forward to connecting with customers, partners and peers from across the world again, and continue to work towards a more flexible and sustainable future by addressing the need for enhanced digital capability. 

“Our team is passionate about providing leading-edge resources for both freelancers and companies that come in all shapes and sizes, and to help them navigate a dynamic mediascape, while armed with the best technology.”To find out more, speak with Vassileva and her team at IBC2024, which is taking place at the Amsterdam RAI convention centre from September 13 – 16.
