Frequently Asked Questions

What is Cinear and how does it create audio descriptions for videos?

Cinear is an AI-powered audio description software that automatically generates professional narration for visual content in films and TV shows. It uses advanced AI to analyze scenes, detect visual elements, and create natural-sounding descriptions that are mixed to broadcast standards (EBU R128). The platform transforms weeks of manual audio description work into hours, making content accessible for blind and visually impaired audiences.

How much does audio description typically cost and how does Cinear compare?

Traditional audio description services cost $15-30 per minute of content, meaning a 90-minute film can cost $1,350-$2,700. Cinear reduces these costs by 90% through AI automation while maintaining broadcast quality. Our platform delivers professional audio descriptions 10x faster than manual methods, turning weeks of work into hours.

What's the difference between audio description and closed captions?

Audio description provides narrated descriptions of visual elements (actions, settings, costumes, expressions) for blind and visually impaired viewers, spoken during gaps in dialogue. Closed captions display text of dialogue and sound effects for deaf and hard-of-hearing viewers. Cinear specializes in audio description, creating professional voice narration that describes what's happening visually on screen.

How do I create audio descriptions for streaming platforms like Netflix or Amazon Prime?

Streaming platforms require audio descriptions to meet specific technical standards. Cinear automatically generates descriptions that comply with Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+, and other platform requirements. Our software exports broadcast-ready files with EBU R128 loudness compliance, professional TTS voices, and detailed QC reports that meet FCC and EU regulations.

What is EBU R128 compliance and why does it matter for audio description?

EBU R128 is the broadcast loudness standard required for professional content delivery. It ensures consistent audio levels across different programs and platforms. Cinear automatically mixes all audio descriptions to EBU R128 standards (-23 LUFS), eliminating the need for manual audio processing and ensuring your content meets broadcast requirements without additional work.

How long does it take to create audio descriptions for a full movie?

Traditional manual audio description takes 15-20 hours of work per hour of content - a 2-hour movie requires 30-40 hours of work. Cinear completes the same task in 2-3 hours total, including AI processing, review, and export. This 10x speed improvement means you can meet tight deadlines and scale accessibility across your entire content library.

What video formats work with Cinear's audio description software?

Cinear supports professional post-production formats including ProRes (all variants), DNxHD, DNxHR, MP4, MOV, and MXF. We integrate seamlessly with existing workflows from Avid, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, and Final Cut Pro. Export options include separate audio tracks, embedded descriptions, and project file formats compatible with major NLEs.

When is Cinear available and how can I get early access?

Cinear launches Q4 2025 with early access starting for select post-production houses and streaming platforms. Join our waitlist to secure priority access, special launch pricing, and input on feature development. Early access users will help shape the platform's capabilities based on real production needs.

Can AI really create professional-quality audio descriptions?

Yes, Cinear's AI creates broadcast-quality audio descriptions used by major post-production houses. Our system combines computer vision for scene analysis, natural language processing for description generation, and professional text-to-speech voices. Every output includes human-in-the-loop editing capabilities and meets strict broadcast standards for immediate use.

What are the legal requirements for audio description in film and TV?

In the US, the FCC requires audio description for prime-time and children's programming on major networks. The EU's Audiovisual Media Services Directive mandates increasing accessibility. Streaming platforms have their own requirements. Cinear ensures compliance with all major regulations, generating detailed compliance reports for each project.
