Professional Subtitling and Captioning Services

Founded in 1978 and proudly based in Houston, Texas, Omni delivers professional subtitling and captioning services that make video content clear, accessible, and usable for global audiences. 

Omni provides subtitling and captioning for a wide range of content, including training videos, eLearning modules, corporate communications, marketing media, technical recording, and more. 

Our professional subtitling services and our captioning services support both accessibility and multilingual communication, enabling content to reach wider audiences while meeting internal, regulatory, or platform requirements.

All subtitling and captioning is handled through Omni’s in-house production workflows, allowing us to manage transcription, translation, timing, formatting, and quality control without third-party handoffs. This ensures captions and subtitles are precisely synchronized and ready for deployment across platforms.

With decades of experience and dedicated project management, Omni acts as a reliable multimedia partner, delivering production-ready subtitles and captions while managing the linguistic and technical complexity behind the scenes.

What Is the Difference Between Subtitles and Captions

While they look almost identical on screen, there is a slight difference between both services.

Subtitles show what was said. They can be often used in conjunction with translation or localization.

On the other hand, captions show what was said and give added context as to what’s happening, such as

. This is better for understanding and accessibility.

There are two types of captions:

  • Open captions: Captions that are burnt-in to the screen. They can’t be turned off.
  • Closed captions: An overlay on the screen that can be turned on or off.

Multilingual Subtitles for Global Audiences

Omni provides multilingual subtitling services that help video content reach audiences across the United States and international markets. We support subtitles in key U.S. languages such as American English and Spanish, ensuring accessibility and clarity for domestic audiences as well as multilingual communities.

Beyond the U.S., Omni delivers subtitles in a wide range of global languages, supporting international communication. From widely used European languages such as German and French, to regional variants including Canadian French, our linguists and production teams ensure subtitles read naturally and accurately for each audience.

All multilingual subtitles are created through Omni’s in-house production workflows, where translation, timing, and formatting are managed together. This ensures subtitles are synchronized correctly and consistent across languages—regardless of platform, content type, or region.

Human and AI workflows

Omni offers both human and AI workflows for your subtitling projects.

In our experience, there is a place for both.

For speed and scale, especially when small budgets are involved, AI subtitles can help to make your content more engaging for domestic and global audiences.

There is a middle ground. AI subtitles can be used with a human post-editor to combine speed and accuracy.

Alternatively, to guarantee 100% accuracy, human subtitles are best suited when clients are looking for clarity, professionalism, and to ensure trust with audiences.

Our dedicated Omni team will always be transparent about which workflow is best for your specific project.
