🤔 Why is AI Subtitle needed?

Users today want to quickly understand content anytime, anywhere, and prefer an environment where they can watch with subtitles alone, without sound. Subtitles not only improve content accessibility, but also serve as essential data for various AI-based features such as search and summarization, making them a critical element for enhancing service competitiveness.

Kollus VOD has officially introduced the AI Subtitle feature based on automatic speech recognition technology, in line with this trend. The generated subtitles are widely used to improve user comprehension and enhance overall service quality.


Kollus AI Subtitle that maximizes learning efficiency

With AI Subtitle, information delivery is maintained even during high-speed playback.

  • Content consumption efficiency: Reduces the time needed to grasp key content
  • Enhanced learning effect: Reinforces repetitive learning and memorization through visual subtitles
  • Optimized for high-speed viewing: Delivers accurate information without missing anything, even at high playback speeds

In particular, when applied to educational and lecture content, it can improve users' learning efficiency by up to 2x or more.


📊 Subtitle accuracy proven by objective data

The accuracy of STT(Speech-to-Text) technology is generally measured by CER(Character Error Rate), where a lower value indicates higher accuracy. Kollus VOD has conducted performance comparison tests against major global STT engines using diverse samples containing a mix of Korean, English, numbers, and symbols.
