Example Use Cases#
Automated Subtitle Generation Workflow: By integrating the Amara API with transcription services like Google Speech-to-Text on Pipedream, you can create a workflow that automatically transcribes spoken language in videos, submits the transcript to Amara for subtitling, and then retrieves and stores the subtitles once they’re ready.
Subtitle Sync and Translation Pipeline: Utilize the Amara API in a Pipedream workflow that monitors your content management system (CMS) for new video uploads. Once a new video is detected, the workflow can automatically upload the video to Amara, trigger the subtitle creation process, and, upon completion, push those subtitles through a translation service like DeepL or Google Translate, then update the CMS with the translated subtitles for various language versions of the video.
Team Collaboration Booster: Create a Pipedream workflow that taps into the Amara API to oversee your subtitle translation projects. Automatically assign tasks to team members based on availability and expertise, notify translators when a new video is ready for their language skills, and track progress through to completion, all while keeping everyone in sync with notifications through communication platforms like Slack or Microsoft Teams.
