We are excited to announce the latest version of Revoiceit, which features improved functionality to improve specific use cases and help customers achieve their audiovisual localisation goals. This update introduces significant advances in audio quality, synchronization accuracy and language functions, consolidating Revoiceit as a powerful tool for AI dubbing and production.

With its new features, Revoiceit not only improves the efficiency and accuracy of the virtual voice production process, but also now offers an even more intuitive and user-friendly experience, allowing users to easily create their own content and localize high-quality AI voices through a fully customized process.

Enhanced Audio Quality

First of all, Revoiceit v2.3 introduces new speech models with significantly improved audio quality and overall prosody. These improvements ensure a more natural and expressive voice production, increasing the realism and expressive impact of the generated audio.

With these new models, superior speech synthesis is achieved, suitable for a wide range of different use cases (e-learning, educational content, training, podcast, advertising, social media and much more).

Revoiceit now also offers users three different prosodies for each line upon initial generation. This provides flexibility and choice of sentence prosody, allowing users to listen to variations and select from the most suitable take for their project.

Enhanced Synchronization Accuracy 

Revoiceit v2.3 introduces several new features aimed at improving audio generation and synchronization:

> Timeline Synchronization in the Production workspace
For content without source audio, it is now possible to upload video and then synchronize the platform-generated audio directly within the Production workspace (this was previously only available for Dubbing workspaces). This functionality is particularly useful for instructional and e-learning videos that do not have a source voice to be dubbed; users can now create AI-generated voices from scratch.

Direct Timeline Editing, including:

> Timeline Zoom-in
To enhance precision, users can now ‘zoom-in’ on the timeline, offering a detailed view of the audio waveform. This allows for meticulous cutting and adjusting, ensuring perfect synchronization.

> Fade In and Fade Out for Audio Chunks
To improve synchronization adaptation and help reduce noise, chunks that are cut within a segment now get a fade-in/fade-out effect, providing a smoother audio experience.

> Manual Editing of Start and Stop Points
In the source assets review page, users can manually edit segment start and stop points. This precise segmentation of source text ensures a customized alignment with the target language, improving the overall dubbing accuracy.

Advanced Linguistic Features

The latest update also brings also new linguistic features to enhance the pronunciation setting workflow:

> Glossary Additions from Preview
Users can now add new glossary terms directly from the Text Editor in the Preview Page, streamlining the workflow and ensuring consistent terminology.

> Editing Existing Terms in the Glossary
This feature allows for easy updates and corrections to the glossary, ensuring accurate and up-to-date term usage.

Expanded Language Support

We are pleased to announce that with this release, Revoiceit increases its language coverage, now supporting Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Turkish, Hindi, and Portuguese (Portugal), and reaching the following fifteen output languages:

1. US English
2. UK English
3. French
4. Italian
5. German
6. Spanish (Spain)
7. Spanish (LatAm)
8. Portuguese (Brazil)
9. Portuguese (Portugal)
10. Polish
11. Simplified Chinese
12. Japanese
13. Korean
14. Turkish
15. Hindi

This expansion allows more users to leverage Revoiceit’s capabilities for their localization needs, making it an even more versatile and powerful tool.

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to innovate and enhance Revoiceit - the professional virtual studio for expressive AI voices.

It was great to be back in Dublin! This year was our first time participating as an exhibitor at LocWorld and we were thrilled with the experience.

At our booth we presented the latest features of Revoiceit, our professional virtual studio for expressive AI voices. We explored with visitors how this innovative tool can enhance the efficiency and scalability of dubbing for audio/visual content; highlighting the transformative impact of advanced AI technology on expanding the reach of localized content.

Having won the Process Innovation Challenge in 2022, it was great to have Voiseed return to the stage, with our Chief Strategy Officer, Páraic Sheridan, as one of the PIC dragons. Together with the other judges, he evaluated the most innovative proposals to revolutionise localisation processes. The PIC is always an important part of the LocWorld event, bringing together some of the most visionary minds in the industry.

In addition, our CEO, Andrea Ballista, participated as a speaker in a panel discussion entitled “Exploring the Future of A/V Localisation: AI, Augmented Translators, and Cutting-edge Technologies in Multimedia Localisation”, an interesting discussion in which we shared our knowledge of how to leverage technologies to overcome traditional limitations and improve the efficiency of the dubbing process.

LocWorld is always a valuable event, and we look forward to applying the knowledge gained to further refine our solutions.

Stay tuned for further updates from Voiseed.

We are excited to announce that Voiseed has been chosen as a provider for AI voices by RWS, a global leader in the localization industry. This partnership marks a significant milestone in our journey to take speech synthesis to new heights.

The partnership with RWS is a great success for Voiseed, as it combines our cutting-edge expertise in AI with RWS‘s vast experience in the localization world. Together, we aim to create innovative, fast, and scalable solutions that help customers streamline their localization efforts for voice content.

Working together with RWS will allow us to bring our technology and innovation to a wider audience. We are excited about the future ahead and look forward to sharing the milestones we will achieve together.

Stay tuned for further updates as we embark on this exciting journey with RWS!

This year, Voiseed team seized the opportunity to actively participate in the GALA Conference, one of the key industry events for localization professionals.

For the first time, we had the privilege of hosting a booth, highlighting the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on audiovisual content by leading the Audiovisual Special Interest Group (SIG) Unconference, and presenting a dedicated session.

We’ve been engaged for several months already in organizing the GALA Special Interest Group focusing on Audiovisual Localization. What better occasion to convene in person than at the GALA conference?

The audiovisual SIG unconference, led by Voiseed CEO Andrea Ballista and Professor Carlo Eugeni, opened with an overview of audiovisual content localization, and then quickly moved to an interactive session, addressing the common challenges of tight schedules and budgets in content production, and exploring how AI is reshaping workflows, and creating new professional opportunities for LSPs.

Our insights about the application of AI in audiovisual localization were further explored during the presentation of our Chief Strategy Officer, Páraic Sheridan, who shared a deeper perspective in his talk entitled ‘Voicing the Unvoiced: AI Dubbing Presents New Opportunities for LSPs’.

He highlighted how AI dubbing can streamline the production of multilingual content, enabling language service providers to tap into new markets and scale up operations that were once considered too complex and cost prohibitive.

The enthusiasm surrounding discussions on artificial intelligence in localization at the conference translated into significant interest at our stand. We conducted numerous Revoiceit demos and engaged in further discussions with LSPs and clients. Our professional virtual studio, tailor-made for the localization industry, offers expressive AI voices, and addresses the complexities of multilingual voice content creation.

Beyond showcasing our innovations, the conference provided an excellent networking opportunity that allowed us to share knowledge about the transformative impact of AI on audiovisual localization. We are excited to be part of this ongoing transformation, and we can’t wait to attend the next GALA conference.
