What do we do?
Our longterm projects
Bundestag
Since 2012, TV1 has been broadcasting parliamentary debates live from the plenum of German Bundestag. Every single speech is cut and made accessible in the Bundestag media library. Since 2018, TV1 has also been creating subtitles and sign language translations in real time in a separate stream. Starting in 2021, all contents streamed live by Bundestag are subtitled. Employing artificial intelligence and speech-to-text interpreters allows us to create subtitles for roughly 1000 hours of video material every year.
YouTV
YouTV is an online TV recorder that allows you to record more than 50 TV channels. Sophisticated recording assistants help our users decide which shows to record. YouTV assists users with program selection, removes commercials on demand, and is available in thirteen apps for all major devices.

Numerous functions help users to considerably enhance their contents. Using Video.Taxi allows you to produce elaborate livestreams directly on the computer, to get live subtitling and to sell livestreams and videos.
