Wedia is a digital asset management and content distribution platform used to control branded media at scale, while 3Play Media provides transcription, captioning, audio description, and media accessibility services. Integrating the two helps marketing, communications, and content operations teams move video and rich media from production to global distribution faster, with better accessibility, compliance, and asset governance.
Data flow: Wedia to 3Play Media, then 3Play Media to Wedia
When a new video is approved in Wedia, the asset and its metadata can be sent to 3Play Media for captioning and transcription. Once processing is complete, the caption files, transcript, and language variants are returned to Wedia and attached to the original asset record.
Data flow: Bi-directional
Wedia can act as the system of record for branded video assets, while 3Play Media handles accessibility production. Status updates from 3Play Media can be synchronized back to Wedia so content managers can track whether a video is queued, in progress, completed, or needs review before regional distribution.
Data flow: Wedia to 3Play Media, then 3Play Media to Wedia
Global brands often need the same campaign video localized for different regions. Wedia can send source-language video assets to 3Play Media for translation, subtitle generation, and transcript creation. The localized files are then returned and stored in Wedia with region-specific metadata, making them easy to distribute to local teams or CMS platforms.
Data flow: 3Play Media to Wedia
Transcripts generated by 3Play Media can be ingested into Wedia to enrich asset metadata and improve searchability. This allows users to search video content by spoken keywords, topics, product names, or speaker references, making it easier for teams to find the right clip for reuse.
Data flow: Bi-directional
For organizations in healthcare, financial services, public sector, or education, Wedia can route approved media to 3Play Media for captioning and audio description before publication. Completion status and compliance artifacts can then be written back to Wedia to confirm that the asset meets internal publishing standards.
Data flow: Wedia to 3Play Media, then Wedia to downstream CMS or marketing platforms
After 3Play Media generates captions or transcripts, Wedia can package the enriched media asset with its accessibility files and distribute it to connected CMS or campaign platforms. This ensures downstream channels receive a complete, ready-to-publish media package without separate handling of caption files.
Data flow: Bi-directional
Wedia asset analytics can be combined with 3Play Media processing data to help teams understand which videos are being localized, captioned, and reused most often. This supports decisions about which content should be prioritized for accessibility investment or regional adaptation.
Overall, integrating Wedia and 3Play Media creates a more efficient media operations workflow by connecting asset governance, accessibility production, and global content distribution in one controlled process.
