IABM-member and established systems integrator and manufacturer PBT EU is delighted to confirm its new partnership with AppTek.

A leader in Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR),Neural Machine Translation (NMT), and Natural Language Understanding (NLU)technologies, AppTek will integrate its award-winning NMT, ASR and Intelligent Line Segmentation (ILS) technologies directly into PBT EU’s SubtitleNEXT captioning, subtitling and localization platform.

Under this new alliance, AppTek’s NMT, ASR and ILScapabilities will enhance SubtitleNEXT’s subtitling and captioning workflows. In addition, AppTek's Intelligent Line Segmentation Neural Network models offer enhanced segmentation capabilities that users can enjoy.
