AI-Media To Launch Next-Generation LEXI Encoders At NAB Show 2026
KUALA LUMPUR, April 15 (Bernama) -- AI-Media, a leader in artificial intelligence (AI)-powered language technology and live captioning solutions, has announced the launch of two new next-generation encoders, the LEXI Text Encoder and LEXI Voice Encoder, at NAB Show 2026.
The release marks AI-Media’s first new encoder hardware in over a decade, building on the success of its industry gold-standard Encoder Pro (HD592), which is used by broadcasters and enterprises worldwide.
“For the first time in over a decade, we are introducing entirely new encoder hardware—built not just to support today’s workflows but to power the next generation of AI-driven live production.
“We are focused on delivering the infrastructure that enables content to be understood in any language, anywhere in the world,” said AI-Media Chief Product Officer, Bill McLaughlin in a statement.
The new solutions deliver performance upgrades, advanced AI-driven capabilities, and a flexible subscription-based model designed to transform live broadcast workflows.
Built for the evolving demands of live production, both encoders combine high-performance hardware with intelligent automation to deliver greater efficiency, scalability, and quality across broadcast environments.
Key next-generation encoder features include upgraded processing power to support increasingly complex AI-driven workflows; LEXI Live Sync, which ensures captions and translations remain perfectly synchronised with video feeds; and 4K broadcast readiness for high-performance live production.
AI-Media is also introducing a Hardware-as-a-Subscription (HaaS) model across its encoder range, including the new releases, eliminating upfront capital expenditure and providing customers with a scalable, cost-effective way to access the latest technology.
At NAB 2026, AI-Media will offer a limited-time promotion, with customers able to secure three months free, enabling immediate access to next-generation technology while reducing upfront costs, alongside a showcase of its full LEXI Suite.
