AI as a success driver for language services

The translation industry and the way translations are carried out have undergone significant changes in recent months. The focus is increasingly on AI-based tools, which has had a noticeable impact on project prices and delivery times. Janus Worldwide being one of the language service providers with highly advanced technologies has made significant investments in new tools and software in 2023. The company now offers language solutions that save both time and money, including video localization with AI speech-to-text technology that can automatically convert voice to text in seconds, TTS (text-to-speech) services, and high-level machine translations with light or full post-editing in accordance with ISO 18587.

The localization sector is increasingly adopting AI solutions to boost efficiency, lower costs, and improve quality. This ultimately helps businesses navigate the challenges of global communication and expand their reach across diverse linguistic and cultural landscapes. In 2023, Janus Worldwide was listed in five new specialized rankings by CSA Research Agency, including The Top Edited Machine Translation LSPs and The Top Technology LSPs (ranked by revenue).

To identify the most resource-intensive processes that can benefit from AI enhancement, we convened a panel of experts. Our in-house AI Taskforce team comprises highly skilled representatives from each department, who have profound insights into our processes, especially in the areas that present the most challenges. We tailor our next-generation AI technology to our clients’ needs.

Discover your main benefits through the example of TTS technology:

1. Cost Efficiency

  • budget-friendly compared to hiring professional actors
  • high-quality audio for all your projects

2. High availability of the service

  • TTS technology is more widely available than actors
  • common scheduling conflicts and availability issues often occur with human narrators

3. Consistency

  • Consistent voice quality that remains unaffected over time. Unlike human narrators, who may vary in tone and pace, TTS ensures a fixed tone that is crucial for maintaining brand consistency.

4. Speed

  • TTS quickly converts text to speech, saving time and ensuring faster project completion.

5. Scalability

  • TTS can handle high volumes of text conversion simultaneously, making it a scalable solution. It allows for easy transformation of text to speech in multiple languages without requiring specific multilingual narrators. The pool of sound engineers and linguists capable of optimizing TTS output is much larger than that of human voice talent.

Where to use TTS technology?

  • E-Learning courses
  • Audiobooks
  • Navigation systems
  • Voice assistants
  • Voice-activated customer support
