    We started Universal Subtitles because we believe
  • 0:03 - 0:07
    every video on the web should be subtitle-able.
  • 0:07 - 0:11
    Millions of deaf and hard of hearing viewers require subtitles to access video.
  • 0:12 - 0:15
    Videomakers and websites should really care about this stuff too.
  • 0:15 - 0:21
    Subtitles give them access to a wider audience and they also get better search rankings.
  • 0:21 - 0:27
    Universal Subtitles makes it incredibly easy to add subtitles to almost any video.
  • 0:27 - 0:32
    Take an existing video on the web, submit the URL to our website,
  • 0:32 - 0:36
    and then type along with the dialog to create the subtitles.
  • 0:39 - 0:43
    After that, tap on your keyboard to sync them with the video.
  • 0:44 - 0:47
    Then you're done-- we give you an embed code for the video
  • 0:47 - 0:49
    that you can put on any website.
  • 0:49 - 0:53
    At that point, viewers are able to use the subtitles and can also
  • 0:53 - 0:56
    contribute to translations.
  • 0:56 - 1:01
    We support videos on YouTube, Blip.TV, Ustream, and many more.
  • 1:01 - 1:05
    Plus, we're adding more services all the time.
  • 1:05 - 1:09
    Universal Subtitles works with many popular video formats,
  • 1:09 - 1:14
    such as MP4, Theora, WebM and over HTML5.
  • 1:14 - 1:19
    Our goal is for every video on the web to be subtitle-able so that anyone who cares about
  • 1:19 - 1:22
    the video can help make it more accessible.
