Business Plan: Autogenerated Subtitles for Podcasts on YouTube

Executive Summary:

Our business idea is to create a platform that offers quick and accurate autogenerated subtitles for podcasts uploaded on YouTube. This service will cater to podcast creators who want to improve accessibility and reach a wider audience through closed captioning.

Problem Statement:

Podcasts are a popular form of content on YouTube, but creating subtitles for hours of audio content can be time-consuming and tedious. Many podcast creators do not have the resources or time to manually transcribe their episodes, leading to a lack of accessibility for viewers who are deaf or hard of hearing.

Solution:

Our platform will use advanced artificial intelligence technologies to automatically transcribe and generate subtitles for podcast episodes uploaded on YouTube. The autogenerated subtitles will be tailored for podcasts, ensuring accuracy and readability for viewers.

Target Market:

Podcast creators and producers who upload their content on YouTube. Content creators looking to improve accessibility and reach a larger audience. Viewers who prefer watching videos with subtitles or have hearing impairments.

Revenue Streams:

  1. Subscription-based model: Offer different pricing tiers based on the number of hours of audio content to be transcribed each month.
  2. Pay-per-use model: Charge a fee for every hour of audio content transcribed on an ad-hoc basis.

Marketing Strategy:

  1. Partner with popular podcast hosting platforms to reach podcast creators.
  2. Run targeted online advertising campaigns on social media platforms.
  3. Offer free trials and discounts to early adopters to build brand awareness.

Financial Projections:

  • Average Monthly Subscription Fee per user: $50
  • Number of Subscribers: 100
  • Average Pay-per-use Fee per hour: $10
  • Number of Pay-per-use Transactions: 50

Estimated Monthly Revenue:

Monthly Subscription Revenue: $50 x 100 = $5,000 Pay-per-use Revenue: $10 x 50 = $500 Total Monthly Revenue: $5,000 + $500 = $5,500

Conclusion:

By providing a convenient and cost-effective solution for podcast creators to add subtitles to their YouTube videos, our platform aims to capture a share of the growing podcast market while promoting inclusivity and accessibility for all viewers.

Estimated MRR: $5,500
