Now serving independent distributors and sales agents

Broadcast-grade subtitles and dubs.
Days to market, not months.

Email us your film or series, trailer and CCSL. Within 48 hours we send back a free preview in your target languages; full subtitle masters land 48 hours after payment. Priced flat by runtime: subtitles from €100 per episode to €400 per feature, dubs from €1,200 to €3,500. In euros. No quote cycles.

The hero demo

One actor. One scene. Four languages. The same voice.

The dub flips language mid-sentence. The same vocal identity carries across every cut. The subtitle flips with it. Pick a language and hear the whole take in it. This is the proof for everything we say in the next three sections.

Hold a language
Same actor, four languages, one voice. We clone the original cast, so your audience keeps the voice they already know.

How it works

Five steps, from email to delivery.

The whole engagement is email. No account to set up. No portal to learn. A producer is on the other end of every message.

Email us a brief

Send hello@fonti.studio a download link to your film or series master, trailer, CCSL (or original-language SRT), plus title, short description, and the languages you want a preview in. WeTransfer, Aspera, S3 signed URLs, whatever you already use.

Mandatory: master · trailer · CCSL or source SRT

A producer reviews

Every brief is read by a human producer before any pipeline work starts. We confirm acceptance, or, rarely, decline, within one business day. The 48-hour clock starts here, not at upload.

Free preview, picked to test us

Within 48 hours of approval we send back a preview rigged to surface the hardest case in your film. Subtitles: a 3 to 5 cue cluster from a fast or culturally loaded scene. Dubs: a five-minute scene that crosses a quiet beat, a shouted line, and a multi-speaker exchange. Same pipeline that ships the master. Free.

Pick languages, pay

Reply with the languages you want to buy. We send a Stripe payment link in EUR for that exact basket, priced by runtime: subtitles €100 / €200 / €400 per language for a 20-min episode, 45-min episode or feature; dubs €1,200 / €1,800 / €3,500. Bilingual stack file thrown in free when you pick two subtitle languages.

Full delivery

Subtitles land within 48 hours of payment: the full master in every language you bought, SRT by default, TTML, IMSC 1.1, EBU-TT-D and CEA-608/708 conversions on request. A full dub is deeper work. Plan on about four weeks for a feature, and you get the mixed master plus the dialogue stem per language.

Subtitles

The three things distributors lose deals over.

Reading speed, shot-misaligned cues, flattened register. Every cue we ship is checked against all three before the file leaves.

≤ 20
CPS, every cue

Broadcast spec

Netflix QC reading-speed rejections are the #1 reason indie distributors lose a slot. Every cue we ship is within spec, on the first pass.

7 frames
safe zone around every cut

Shot-aligned timing

Cues that flash across shot changes break the eye. Ours never do. We detect the shot list before we author timing.

Tu / vous
register, idiom, profanity

Faithful translation

AI models default to a sanitised read. We keep the register the writer wrote. The glossary locks names, places, terms before the first cue is translated.

Dubs

The original cast, in another language.

Same voice your audience already knows. Same performance across languages. The three failures that got public AI dubs pulled in 2024 and 2025 are the three we built this pipeline against.

0.68
speaker similarity to the original actor

Same voice

Buyers don't want a stock voice that kind of sounds like the lead. They want the lead. We clone the actual cast from the film you already licensed. A generic preset voice scores 0.55 on the same scale.

Per cue
face + voice confirmed

Right voice, right face

The most embarrassing AI dub failure is one voice across multiple characters. Audio and visual both have to agree before a voice is assigned.

Held
across whispered, shouted, broken

Emotion carries

Flatness is what got Amazon's AI dubs pulled in late 2024. We render through the original cast voice so the performance survives the language.

Cast consent

We clone the original cast, never local dub actors. That keeps you clear of the 2025 Berlin Court ruling and Italy's ANAD clause. Your cast agreements do need to cover AI voice use, and many older contracts don't mention it. Send us the clause with your brief and we'll check it with you before you spend anything.

No surprises at delivery

Tell us your target contract at briefing and we'll tell you up front whether the master will pass. And if a platform ever pushes back on a file we shipped, we take their QC report and fix it, free, until it passes.

A human on every file

Initials in the SRT header. Every time.

Fonti Studio is not a marketplace. Every delivery is produced by us, reviewed by a named senior editor before the file leaves. The pipeline is automated. The accountability is not.

Every market that matters.

30+ languages out of the box. SDH on request, at no extra cost. If you need a pair we don't list, ask.

Why the price looks impossible

It's not a discount. It's a different way of working.

Traditional localization is expensive for good reasons: casting, studio bookings, session direction, and hand-timed cues are skilled hours, and they add up. We put that budget into software instead. Building and maintaining a pipeline that times, renders, and checks every cue against the same specs your platform tests is serious engineering, and that is where most of our cost lives. On top of it sits the human layer we will never remove: an engineer reviews every file, a producer reads every brief, and nothing ships without a final listen. The preview is free so you can judge the result on your own title before a euro changes hands.

10+ titles a year

For studios & catalogs.

Distributors and sales agents working at volume (film slates or full seasons) get invoice billing, flexible payment terms, and a dedicated producer. Rates agreed in a short addendum.

FAQ

What buyers usually ask.

Still unsure? Write a producer. We reply same day.

Subs: a 3-5 cue cluster from a hard scene picked to test us. Dubs: a 5-minute scene that crosses a quiet line, a shouted line, and a multi-speaker exchange. Same pipeline that ships the master. Free. Walk away if it doesn't convince you.

For subtitles, yes: features up to 180 minutes, full masters within 48 hours. The clock starts when a producer accepts your brief, typically within one business day. The free preview also comes back within 48 hours, for subs and dubs alike. A full feature dub is deeper work; plan on about four weeks. If we miss a committed window for reasons on our side, you get a 20% discount on the affected language.

Yes. Same pipeline, same specs, priced per episode by runtime: subtitles are €100 per language for a 20-minute-plus episode and €200 for 45-minutes-plus; dubs are €1,200 and €1,800. Features are €400 and €3,500. The glossary is locked once per show and the cast is cloned once, so terminology and voices stay consistent from the pilot to the finale.

Send the original-language SRT instead. We need one of the two to lock the source-side ground truth. We don't build CCSL ourselves.

SRT is the default deliverable. TTML, IMSC 1.1, EBU-TT-D and CEA-608/708 conversions are available on request, as is SDH (sound effects + speaker IDs), at no extra charge. Two subtitle languages on the same film? You also get the bilingual stacked file free.

The original cast. We clone the actors from the film you already licensed, never local dub actors. One thing to check early: your cast agreements need to cover AI voice use, and many contracts signed before 2024 don't mention it. Send us the relevant clause with your brief and we'll tell you whether it covers an AI dub and what wording is missing if it doesn't. That check is free and happens before you commit to anything. Every delivery ships with the AI-use disclosure, ready for EU AI Act Article 50.

For subtitles, we pass Netflix Branded Delivery on the first submission; that is the spec the pipeline is built against. For dubs, tell us your target contract at briefing and we'll walk you through any edge cases before you commit. And if a platform ever rejects a file we shipped, we take their QC report and make the fixes for free until it passes. That's part of the price, not an extra.

Encrypted at rest, EU-hosted, purged on your written request. NDA on request before you upload. Your master never trains a model and never leaves our infrastructure.
