Visit Amara

Amara is a cloud-based subtitling and captioning platform from the Participatory Culture Foundation, a nonprofit. It provides a do-it-yourself subtitle editor for creating captions and subtitles, along with team and workflow management tools, an API, and a professional subtitle service called Amara On Demand.

The Amara Editor supports captioning, subtitling, translation, and review, with features such as audio waveforms, adjustable playback speed, shortcuts, and notes. Customizable workflows handle review and final approval, while team management tools let managers assign roles and permissions. The platform integrates with YouTube, Vimeo, and other video hosting sites for subtitle import and export, and can manage localized metadata and video titles. The Amara API allows workflows and subtitling assignments to be automated and integrated into existing systems. Amara On Demand offers professional subtitles, captions, and text translations in more than 50 languages, with multiple formats and delivery options.

Amara is designed for individuals, teams, volunteer groups, and organizations managing subtitle projects of varying sizes. The platform is available through platform plans, and Amara On Demand pricing is provided on request.
