How publishers build competitive advantage with 3Play Media

Legal Compliance

3Play Media's services comply with all major accessibility laws, including ADA Title II and Title III, which require that employee training videos and other media be made accessible.

Accessibility

Go beyond legal requirements. With 3Play Media, you can create accessible, accurate, and enjoyable experiences for all users, regardless of ability.

Competitive Pricing

By leveraging technology and professional editors, we are able to provide a high-quality product for a fraction of the cost.

Viewer Experience

3Play Media provides a plugin that makes your videos and playlists searchable, interactive, and more engaging.

Speed

Turnaround options to match your needs

Keeping pace with the news cycle is critical. We know publishers cannot wait on captions to publish videos, so we offer numerous turnaround options to fit your needs. We value your deadlines and have special mechanisms in place to ensure we deliver services on time.

Our fastest turnaround is 2-hours – one of the fastest in the industry. We also offer an extended option, at a discounted price, for projects that do not need to rush the delivery.

Every file goes through a multi-step quality assurance process, including two rounds of human review to ensure a 99% accuracy rate.

We have a Progressive Delivery option if you need captions quicker than two hours. With Progressive Delivery, we deliver files when they meet certain thresholds, such as the estimated accuracy rate. While a Progressive Delivery file will not be as accurate as a file that goes through our full review process, this can be an excellent option for adding interim captions or transcription while waiting for a fully compliant and accurate file.

Why 3Play is Better with Turnaround and Deadline Compliance
