Verbatim subtitles are not just accessibility features—they are the foundation of searchable, auditable, and AI-readable institutional video. This practical guide explains how to produce SRT and VTT subtitles step by step, ensuring audiovisual outputs function as durable knowledge assets across donor-funded programmes, internal repositories, and long-term archives.

Will today’s project videos be visible to tomorrow’s AI-driven archives? As EU and UN institutions integrate AI-assisted search and evaluation, audiovisual content must evolve. Learn why structured delivery—including verbatim subtitles and JSON-LD metadata—is essential for transforming "dark data" into machine-readable institutional assets that survive project closure and remain accessible to future systems.
