AI-Media, a global leader in end-to-end captioning technology solutions, has entered into a new partnership with DAZN, the global sports entertainment streaming platform. Through this collaboration, AI-Media will deliver live and recorded multi language and translated captioning using various solutions from its AI-powered LEXI Tool Kit.

DAZN Group is one of the world’s fastest-growing sports media platforms, and this partnership marks a significant moment in their commitment to inclusivity and accessibility of their content. Leveraging AI-Media’s LEXI Tool Kit, DAZN will seamlessly integrate live captions across its extensive and diverse premium sports content, enriching the viewer experience for millions worldwide.

Key highlights of this partnership include:

Cutting-Edge Technology: LEXI 3.0, AI-Media’s latest automatic captioning solution, introduces innovative features such as speaker identification and AI-powered caption placement, ensuring accuracy exceeding 98%. LEXI’s advanced vocabulary caters to region-specific nuances, including challenging pronunciations and complex spellings, enhancing the quality of sport content captioning.

Complete End-to-End Solution: DAZN will utilise AI-Media’s Alta IP caption Encoder for LEXI Live captioning delivery. Alta offers a virtualised, API-powered software solution tailored for IP video environments, ensuring seamless integration.

Expanded Language Support: Initial rollout includes Spanish and English captions for EMEA and US markets, with plans for additional languages through LEXI Translate, encompassing French, German, Italian, Arabic, Japanese and more.

Support for On-Demand FAST Channels: DAZN has implemented AI-Media’s LEXI Recorded solution for captioning pre-recorded content on their FAST (Free Ad-supported Streaming TV) Channels. LEXI Recorded, a newly launched solution in the LEXI Tool Kit, offers fast turnaround, highly accurate and low-cost captions – essential for high volume, time-sensitive captioning applications of recorded content.

Cost-Effective Solution: Transitioning from costly human captioning services to AI-Media’s LEXI platform enables DAZN to deliver multi-language captions across multiple channels at the same cost as human delivery, enhancing accessibility while optimising resources.

Mark Lovatt, General Manager of Global Strategic Accounts at AI-Media, said: “With this new agreement, we’re excited to bring live and recorded multilingual captions to DAZN viewers using our LEXI Tool Kit solutions. Choosing AI-Media for LEXI automated captioning underscores the impact of Artificial Intelligence on the industry.

This partnership with AI-Media is another example of where DAZN uses best in class tech-based solutions to deliver the services and products that our customers want and expect.
