  • Deepdub recently announced it raised $20 million. These are the details.

Deepdub – a leader in AI-based entertainment localization – recently announced that it has raised $20 million in Series A funding led by Insight Partners with participation from existing investors Booster Ventures and Stardom Ventures and new investors Swift VC. And angel investors joining this round include Emiliano Calemzuk former President of Fox Television Studios, Kevin Reilly former CCO of HBO Max, Danny Grander Co-Founder of Snyk, Roi Tiger VP, Engineering at Meta, Gideon Marks and Daniel Chadash.

The funding round will be used to expand the global reach of the company’s sales and delivery teams, bolster the Tel Aviv based R&D team with additional top-notch researchers and developers, and further enhance the company’s best-in-class deep learning-based localization platform.

Co-founded by Ofir Krakowski and Nir Krakowski, Tel Aviv-based Deepdub aims to bridge the language barrier and cultural gap of entertainment through high-quality localization. And Deepdub’s platform utilizes cutting-edge AI technology with a human touch to allow content creators, owners, and distributors to extend their international reach and scale their offerings while maintaining the highest level of quality. For audiences, this means watching their favorite film and TV programs dubbed in native languages without losing any aspect of the original experience.

The current funding round follows a year of explosive growth and momentum. And since their public launch Deepdub inked a multi-series partnership with Topic.com to bring their catalog of foreign TV shows into English and became the first-ever company to dub an entire feature-length film into Latin American Spanish utilizing AI voices. The company is already working with multiple Hollywood studios on various projects.
