(Wednesday, September 24, 2025, New York City, NY) – KUDO, the leading provider of language accessibility technology, today announced the release of KUDO ‘Word Priority’. This feature of the KUDO Platform is a powerful new capability that improves AI recognition of acronyms, technical terms, and brand names—even when pronounced in unexpected ways.
Solving a Real-World Challenge
For organizations that rely on accurate terminology, consistency is key. Acronyms, technical terms, and brand names are often pronounced in different ways—for example, an acronym might be spoken as a word (“NATO”) or spelled out letter by letter (“N-A-T-O”). With ‘Word Priority’, KUDO AI recognizes all expected variations seamlessly, ensuring accurate translation and captions that reflect the speaker’s intent.
The feature enhances and prioritizes the recognition of key terms and words. Clients can add specialized vocabulary that KUDO AI should handle more accurately in speech. Typical use cases include acronyms, industry-specific jargon, and technical terminology, all of which are then translated consistently across the selected output languages once recognized.
Key Highlights
Operating much like the KUDO Glossary, ‘Word Priority’ allows clients to define key terminology for prioritized recognition. This data is then ingested into the AI engine, enabling real-time recognition and translation across all supported languages.
