The two output columns that are usually left empty
Two columns describe what comes out of a tool rather than what goes into it: the language of the working documents, and the language of the spoken dialogue. Most vendors publish neither. As of 2026-09-12.
Merging those two is the commonest error on a localisation page. A tool that writes a script in German and speaks it in English is not a German tool, and a tool that speaks German from an English script is a different product again. Both exist and both are sold with the same word.
Each column page sets out what would count as a published answer, then records who has given one. Where the answer is a count with no list, the count is printed and the absence of the list is recorded, because a number alone cannot be checked against a market.
The columns are narrow on purpose. A question that needs an account, a render or a support reply belongs in neither column, because a reader could not repeat it.
1The columns
- Documents — What each AI video tool publishes about the language of the outlines and storyboard scripts it generates, and why that column is kept apart.
- Dialogue — What each AI video tool publishes about spoken dialogue languages, the difference between a count and a named list, and where the setting lives.
A column is added when enough vendors publish something to compare; one nobody fills would be a question rather than a register entry.
The rest of the atlas: Markets, Tools, Questions, Learn, Data. How a list earns a column is set out on the counting page.
