First AI Software Specialized in Creating Barrier-Free Subtitles and Audio Guides, "Okosuke AI" Mac Version, Now on Sale

NPO Media Access Support Center (Address: Azabudai, Minato-ku, Tokyo; Director: Ryo Tokoyoda) will commence sales of the next-generation subtitle and audio guide production software "Okosuke AI" Mac version (for professionals) on July 1, 2026. "Okosuke AI" is the first software optimized for the production of barrier-free subtitles and audio guides, equipped with AI-powered speech recognition, proofreading, and multilingual translation functions, significantly enhancing operational efficiency in production sites.

While the volume of video content continues to increase, the production of barrier-free subtitles for individuals with hearing impairments and audio guides for individuals with visual impairments still requires a significant amount of manual labor, placing a heavy burden on production teams. "Okosuke AI," developed by NPO Media Access Support Center, aims to solve this challenge with AI technology, striving to make barrier-free compliance faster, more accurate, and applicable to a wider range of works.

This highly anticipated professional software is launching first as a Mac version, with a Windows version also planned for future release. The software will be exhibited at "Content Tokyo 2024 ~Video & CG Production Expo~" held from June 17th to 18th.
