Listen liveAbout Tolkr™
Built by people who deliver video.
Every organisation meets foreign language audio: channels to follow, calls with partners, programmes that must go out in other languages. Too often the answer is to send that audio to someone else's servers, or to wait for an interpreter.
CAST TIME is a video delivery company. For more than 15 years it has run its own infrastructure and delivered live and recorded video in a heavy production environment.
From that experience the CAST TIME team built Tolkr™: a complete platform for live interpreting, dubbing and translated text. Tolkr™ Studio follows live audio with captions and a natural voice, turns recordings into finished dubs placed sentence by sentence, and delivers subtitles, transcripts and files made to a delivery spec.
It runs on your organisation's own dedicated systems. During use, no sound and no text leave them.

The delivery specHow we build it
Four rules the platform does not bend.
- Your own systemsNothing leaves them.
Listening, translating and the voice all run on your own systems. We watched the connections Tolkr™ opened during a live session, a dub and a voice test. None left the PC.
- Both waysEvery language works both ways.
Each language in Tolkr™ translates into English and out of it, in captions, and 36 are spoken by a natural voice.
- No guessingWhen it is unsure, it says so.
A line Tolkr™ is unsure of is marked in the captions, so you know which line to check.
- The original staysNothing is thrown away.
A dub keeps the original sound as its own track, and every session is kept on your systems with the original and the translation side by side.
Tolkr™ is developed by CAST TIME LTD, a UK company owned by SKYNET GROUP LTD, Israel. CAST TIME is a video delivery company, and it is also behind the PEERNAP™ hybrid peer-assisted delivery network.
The same engineering habit runs through everything it builds: assume the work is in production, prove it on real material before it ships, and keep the customer's data on the customer's hardware. In Tolkr™ that means live interpreting, dubbing and translated text produced on your own systems, with every dub placed sentence by sentence.
The name is inspired by tolk, the word for interpreter in 
Dutch, 
Norwegian, 
Swedish and 
Danish. It is spoken tolker.
