Interesting PoV. While reading the article, I couldn't keep myself away from the the thoughts around what would happen if we replace "pharma" by "media".

Subtitles that flow naturally, appear at exactly the right moment and respect the rhythm of the edit. That's what professional subtitling is all about.

Automatically turning speech into text is one thing. Creating subtitles that are easy to read, perfectly timed and aligned with the rhythm of the edit requires considerably more intelligence.

Great subtitles are as invisible as possible. Achieving that requires careful attention to tone of voice, timing, reading speed, line breaks, speaker changes, shot changes, positioning and more. Getting these right takes time and editorial expertise.

Limecraft's AI subtitling agent approaches subtitling from the viewer's perspective. It generates high-quality subtitles that follow your specific style guidelines, respect editorial preferences and fit naturally into the viewing experience.

The result? Less manual correction, consistently high quality and content that viewers can enjoy without distraction.

Our team is at Les Docks de Paris and ready to talk about smarter production workflows, workflow intelligence and the role of AI in media production.

Come and visit us at 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝟰𝟭 to discover how Limecraft helps you:

🎬 connect production data, script metadata and media from set to post
🤖 automate repetitive preparation work and speed up the pre-cut
🗣️ improve transcription, localisation and subtitling with AI
📦 streamline content delivery and keep your entire workflow connected

If you are in production, Limecraft ‘Production Workspaces’ bring more structure and visibility to your workflow. With the newest releases, we doubled down on multicam production and multichannel audio, and we introduced no-code workflow capabilities. For broadcasters, the ‘Delivery Workspace’ further streamlines the complex processes around acquired content.

Because adding more AI tools is not a strategy. Making your workflows smarter is. 😉

Come by, meet the team and discover what intelligent workflows can do for your production. See you at C41! 👋

Who else is joining @LMconference this week in London? Looking forward to catching up.

[Maarten Verwaest @maartenverwaest]

Audio is often more complex than video. Very few get it right. Most don't even try.

@limecraft goes the extra mile, including configuration of audio layouts, audio channel mapping on ingest, and real-time switching between audio layouts during playout, directly in the browser. Another area where Limecraft is ahead of the pack.

[Maarten Verwaest @maartenverwaest]

@Limecraft's signature AI subtitling method consistently comes out on top in comparative benchmarks, by quite a landslide. The result of years of dedicated R&D in close collaboration with some of the most demanding experts in the industry.

Looking forward to @LMconference in London next week, arguably the most representative gathering of language tech professionals.

Around next week? Drop me a message and let's meet.

🎬 𝙁𝙞𝙡𝙢 𝙁𝙚𝙨𝙩 𝙂𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙠𝙞𝙘𝙠𝙨 𝙤𝙛𝙛 𝙩𝙤𝙙𝙖𝙮!

As the 2026 edition gets underway, we’re taking a look at some of the productions on the programme that have been supported by Limecraft.

One of them is Breendonk, the new historical series by Belgian production company @DeMensen. Set in occupied Belgium in 1942, the series tells a powerful story of resistance, loyalty and survival. The first two episodes will premiere at Film Fest Gent on 14 October.

Behind the scenes, Limecraft helps production teams like De Mensen keep media workflows organised, connected and efficient, from ingest and media management to collaboration and content delivery.

That means less time spent managing media and more time spent on what really matters: 𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙜𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩 𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙨.

We’re proud to see Breendonk make its way to the big screen. And even prouder to know Limecraft played a part behind the scenes!

[Maarten Verwaest @maartenverwaest]

Unlike other (high volume) cases like archive ops, in a production, the processing cost of the actual transcription is the smallest fraction of TCO.

Bare metal transcription has become commodity. Turning a transcript into something that actually saves time to producers, journalists and editors is much harder.

Proper nouns need to be right. Timecodes have to be reliable (thereby maintaining the link with media), we get that. 🙏 @Speechmatics, we appreciate the effort you are taking to optimise the service.

But ultimately, the result needs to flow into @Adobe , @Avid or whatever comes next, without another round of copy, paste, export and ironing out errors. That’s where the real cost and, consequently, the true opportunity for automation sit.

At @Limecraft, we spent years optimising exactly that part: turning increasingly capable AI services into dependable professional media workflows.

Our two cents - pun intended: don’t just compare based on the price of the service. Compare the time it takes to get from raw media to something editorial can actually use. 🎯
