“Our proprietary tech, VisualDub, intends to make non-native content native, help content creators and long format platforms in localization of content, make dubbed content look realistic, and offer a delightful experience for viewers. We see this technology being adopted globally by content platforms and studios, advertising agencies, broadcasting networks, edtech platforms, and creators of L&D content. Given the nature of the technology and the fast-growing content ecosystem, VisualDub will surely create intrinsic value and further growth,” said Mandar Natekar, NeuralGarage co-founder and CEO.
