demain.ai has confirmed the acquisition of Kaption.fr, a professional subtitling and subtitle translation service for youtubers. This acquisition is part of the development of tomorrow.ai’s activities in the field of natural language processing using artificial intelligence.

Kaption.fr was developed during the March 2020 lockdown in France, at the initiative of Gérald Rouquet, a 22-year-old student at the EM Normandie Grand Ecole program. The site is aimed at professional youtubers and companies wishing to increase the quality of their videos by integrating French subtitles or to increase their audience by integrating English subtitles. The platform was acquired by tomorrow.ai, whose managing partner, Gaetan Fron, said:

“the acquisition of Kaption.fr is in line with the development logic of demain.ai around natural language generation automation technologies”

Gérald Rouquet considers that the acquisition by demain.ai of its creation can only improve the quality of its service:

“the transfer of Kaption.fr to demain.ai will allow this service to benefit from the best development opportunities in the coming months.”

Subtitling is an important aspect of videos because, according to a study by the Discovery Digital Network, quality and relevant subtitling increases the audience of a video by an average of 13.5% and its viewing time by an average of 12%.
