Overview

Workflows inside the Ollang Project Management Dashboard determine:
  • how Orders are processed,
  • which providers are used,
  • which AI models are selected,
  • how language pairs are configured,
  • and how localization pipelines operate.
A Workflow is a reusable operational configuration that defines how localization should happen for a specific language pair. Example:
This allows organizations to:
  • standardize localization workflows,
  • benchmark provider quality,
  • and maintain consistency across multilingual operations.

What is a Workflow?

A Workflow is a reusable configuration that determines:
  • which providers are used,
  • which language pair is localized,
  • how localization is processed,
  • and how Orders are operationalized.
Instead of manually selecting providers every time, organizations can:
  • preconfigure workflows,
  • reuse them across Orders,
  • and standardize operational quality.

Workflow Scope

Workflows can currently be configured at:

Global Workflow

Default workflow configuration applied across the organization.

Folder-Level Workflow

Folder-specific workflow configuration overriding global settings.
Project-level workflows are not currently supported. Workflows can be configured globally or at the Folder level.

Global Workflows

Overview

Global workflows act as:
  • organization-wide default workflows.
These workflows automatically apply when:
  • no Folder-level workflow exists.
Example:
This becomes:
  • the operational default for all applicable Orders.

Folder-Level Workflows

Overview

Folder-level workflows allow teams to configure localization differently for specific operational use cases. This is useful when:
  • different teams require different providers,
  • different content types require different quality standards,
  • or experimentation is needed.
Example:
Even though:
  • the language pair is identical,
the workflow may differ depending on:
  • operational requirements,
  • content type,
  • and quality expectations.

Workflow Override Logic

Folder-level workflows always override:
  • Global workflows.

Workflow Architecture by Order Type

Different workflows can be configured independently for different localization stages. Supported workflow categories include:

Video Captioning (CC)

Speech-to-text and caption generation workflow.

Subtitle Translation

Translation workflow for multilingual subtitle localization.

AI Dubbing

Voice synthesis workflow including Lip Sync and Audio Description.

Document Translation

Localization workflow for structured and document-based content.

Studio Dubbing

Workflow coordination for studio-managed dubbing operations.

Multiple Workflows for the Same Language Pair

Organizations may configure multiple workflows for the same language pair across different Folders. Example:
This enables:
  • benchmarking,
  • experimentation,
  • quality optimization,
  • and use-case-specific localization.

Provider Architecture

Overview

Ollang acts as an orchestration layer. Rather than forcing a single provider, the platform enables organizations to:
  • choose providers,
  • benchmark providers,
  • compare results,
  • and optimize workflows.
This creates operational flexibility because:
Organizations can continuously optimize workflows based on:
  • quality,
  • speed,
  • language coverage,
  • and content type.

Speech-to-Text (STT) Providers

Speech-to-text providers run in the transcribe step and are used for Video Captioning, transcription, subtitle generation, and speaker diarization.

Speech-to-Text provider catalog

Accuracy tiers, language coverage, and hallucination risk for every transcription provider.

Translation Providers

Translation providers run in the translate step and cover subtitle translation, document translation, multilingual localization, and dubbing script generation. The catalog spans 27 engines across 10 model families.
Two families have order-type restrictions: DeepL serves Document and Subtitle Orders only, and Llama 4 does not serve AI Dubbing. Everything else covers all three.

Translation provider catalog

Model-by-model capability notes, context windows, and order-type support.

Text-to-Speech (TTS) Providers

TTS providers run in the textToSpeech step and are used for AI Dubbing, Audio Description, and multilingual speech generation.

Text-to-Speech provider catalog

Model versions, voice catalogs, and cloning support.

Audio Processing

AI Dubbing Orders begin with the split step, which separates the dialogue stem from the music-and-effects bed so the original score and sound design survive localization. LALAL.AI (default) — multi-network stem separation with direct synthesis, selectable noise cancelling, and dereverberation.

Audio Processing provider catalog

How stem separation shapes the final dubbing mix.

Workflow Lifecycle

Important Operational Rule

Workflow updates only affect future Orders.
Already-created Orders:
  • remain unchanged,
  • preserve their operational workflow,
  • and continue using the workflow selected at Order creation.

AI Quality Benchmarking

Organizations commonly benchmark providers using:
  • AI QC Evaluation,
  • Human QC Annotation,
  • analytics,
  • and localization performance tracking.
This helps teams understand:
Because the AI ecosystem evolves rapidly:
The platform is intentionally designed for:
  • experimentation,
  • optimization,
  • and provider flexibility.

Example Enterprise Workflow


Example Multi-Folder Benchmarking

Teams can later compare:
  • localization quality,
  • human edit percentage,
  • QC outcomes,
  • and operational performance.

Important Operational Notes

No. Workflows can currently be configured at Global level and Folder level only.
Yes. Folder-level workflows always take precedence.
Yes. Different Folders may use different workflows for the same language pair.
No. Workflow updates only affect future Orders.
Yes. Different workflow stages can use different providers.
No. Ollang acts as an orchestration layer and allows organizations to choose providers based on operational goals.
