AI-powered video localization

AI-powered video localization

Sherlock: Because 90% accuracy isn’t enough.

AI can move video localization faster than ever. Sherlock combines that speed with expert human oversight to deliver the accuracy, quality, and control global brands need.

Human expertise guides the output

AI accelerates the workflow

Human-in-the-loop AI

AI does the heavy lifting. An expert stays at the controls.

Sherlock brings multiple AI-powered video localization processes into one workflow, guided by a trained linguist and localization expert.

Rather than simply reviewing AI output at the end, the Sherlock operator manages the process, adjusts inputs, resolves exceptions, and validates the finished video before delivery.

What Sherlock’s human expert is watching.

AI handles much of the production work. Sherlock’s trained operator oversees the critical points where context, accuracy, and judgment still matter.

Transcription Accuracy

Getting the source right.

AI transcription can misinterpret accents, names, acronyms, punctuation, and context. Sherlock’s expert corrects the source before errors travel downstream.

Translation & Context

Preserving meaning across markets.

The operator reviews terminology, context, tone, and market relevance rather than relying on raw machine translation alone

Voice & Pronunciation

Making AI voice sound right.

Names, acronyms, pronunciation, pacing, and language-specific nuances are reviewed and adjusted for more natural delivery.

On-Screen Text

Handling what automation can’t.

Sherlock combines AI with human intervention when text appears over complex, dynamic, or photographic backgrounds that automated tools struggle to manipulate cleanly.

The sherlock workflow

Seven stages. One finished video.

Sherlock brings the moving parts of video localization into one coordinated workflow. AI accelerates each stage while a trained expert guides the process, resolves exceptions, and validates quality before delivery.
