Artificial intelligence is playing a key role in video summarization. It can help to summarize a video by selecting important parts of the video that capture the main points.
Why should you use video summarization?
Summarization has many use cases, with one of the most significant being the ability to gauge interest in the content. A flashcard summary can determine how many people will actually watch an entire video. Many people don’t have time to watch an entire video, but they will take the time to watch a video summary. After watching the summary of the video, users can make immediate judgments on its usefulness.
Along with clicks and length, video summarization is necessary for efficient viewing on other channels, as well as length adaptation, such as on Instagram, Facebook, and the others. There are also several reasons why video summarization makes sense:
. In this age of the internet, we all skim websites. We don’t always have the patience to read through everything, and we normally focus on what captures our attention.
. Busy professionals know that shorter is better. If the video content is valuable, your clients will love you for it.
. Video summarizes are cheaper to translate. You can reach a wider audience.
. A shorter content is a mobile/social media friendly format.
Summaries to reduce costs of video translations
Translating a video into other languages can be expensive. There’s a lot of work involved in the translation of videos. If you convert 40 minutes of video, that’s between 6000 and 7000 words to translate. The average word rate is 7 cents. Translation can be costly, especially when converting a long video into several languages.
In today’s world, companies are doing everything they can to reduce expenses. A 7000 word video can be summarized in 1000 words, resulting in a significant reduction of translation costs. Video audio summaries allow brands to reach international audiences quickly and cheaply.

Summarization of audio files: how do we work?
LenseUp works by first transcribing the spoken content , identifying important sentences in the transcript, and finally, recording a new audio, either with voice actors or artificial voices. The output can also be delivered in form of a written text. One of the most important parts of the process is automation. The process can be fully automated or with human experts.
1. Analysing the video file in the source language.
Length, number of words, business sector… A quotation is sent to you,
2. Transcription
Transcription of the video file is automatically done using speech to text recognition technology, with human post editing or fully automated.
2. Summarizing
Our solution automatically divides episodes into logical “sections” as the topic changes. It then generates summaries for each “section” of content.
3. Translation process
Translation of summarized audio files is done by native translators or fully automated with neural translation.
4. Voice over and audio recording of the audio summary
We can also create a voice-over in another language, it can be created artificially or by actors.
