Cineverse Partners with XL8

XL8, a provider of machine translation technology, and Cineverse, a streaming technology and entertainment company, have partnered to enhance Cineverse's Matchpoint content management and distribution platform with XL8's artificial intelligence-driven captioning and localization capabilities.

This partnership combines XL8's real-time AI-powered localization supply chain solutions, including AI-generated subtitle and caption creation along with its proprietary machine translation engines, with Cineverse's content management and distribution platform.

XL8's MediaCAT APIs will serve as a link in Cineverse's digital media supply chain, which will leverage XL8's AI technology to manage localization within the Matchpoint all-in-one over-the-top and streaming platform.

"Our partnership with Cineverse demonstrates our ongoing commitment to innovation and leadership in the AI-powered media localization market," said Josh Pine, chief revenue officer of XL8, in a statement. "Embedding our platform into an automated media delivery system for FAST represents an industry milestone, and we're thrilled to be part of a solution that empowers media companies with fast, accurate, and culturally nuanced translations to expand their reach to global audiences."

"Integrating XL8's top-tier AI auto caption creation and machine translation engines into Matchpoint allows us to leverage next-generation technology to help Cineverse and our partners to easily expand our business internationally without incurring significant costs. Through the power of Matchpoint and XL8's MediaCAT, our content partners can now more effectively maximize their distribution and improve monetization for their content libraries," said Cineverse Chief Operating Officer and Chief Technology Officer Tony Huidor in a statement.
