Your Localization Workflow Is Broken Heres How To Fix It
Published by Ditto Team · 3 min read · 16 days ago
You’ve poured everything into your latest video. The edit is perfect, the sound is crisp, and you're ready to publish. But now comes the second wave of work: localization. You fire up one tool for AI dubbing. You open another to translate your title and description, hoping the keywords carry over. Then, you open a design app to painstakingly edit the text on your thumbnail for each new language.
This disjointed, multi-tool process isn't just inefficient; it's actively hurting your channel's growth.
Why? Because a viewer in Germany who sees a German title but an English thumbnail is less likely to click. An amazing Spanish dub is less likely to be discovered if the video's metadata isn't optimized for Spanish search terms. Inconsistency kills your click-through rate (CTR) and discoverability in new markets. You're doing the work but leaving most of the views on the table.
At DittoDub, we saw this problem firsthand. We realized that providing best-in-class audio was only solving one piece of the puzzle. That’s why we built the industry's first full-stack localization platform.
