Human approval gate
A qualified locale reviewer and content owner approve meaning, pronunciation, captions, visuals, legal or policy language, and final render.
The workflow
Every step includes a check that can stop the process before risk moves downstream.
- 01
Inventory translatable elements
List narration, dialogue, captions, labels, graphics, screenshots, calls to action, and metadata.
Gate: No visible or audible language element is omitted. - 02
Set locale rules
Define terminology, names, pronunciation, tone, formats, policy text, and cultural constraints.
Gate: A local owner approves the rules before generation. - 03
Create the localized cut
Adapt script, voice, captions, graphics, and timing while retaining all generated versions.
Gate: Each change maps to the source segment. - 04
Review in context
A qualified reviewer watches the full render for meaning, timing, pronunciation, visuals, captions, and brand.
Gate: Text-only review cannot approve the video. - 05
Publish per locale
Record locale approval, export settings, disclosure, destination, and correction owner separately.
Gate: One locale's approval does not authorize another.
