Artificial Intelligence (AI)-Generated Audio Described Video Market Report 2026

The artificial intelligence (AI)-generated audio described video market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $2.01 billion in 2025 to $2.48 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 23.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to early adoption of ai in media, rising demand for accessible content, advancements in speech synthesis technology, increasing awareness of disability inclusion, growth in online streaming platforms.

The artificial intelligence (AI)-generated audio described video market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.73 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 23.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of ai-generated content in education, integration with immersive media platforms, rise of multi-language accessibility solutions, increasing regulatory mandates for inclusivity, adoption of cloud-based audio description services. Major trends in the forecast period include real-time audio description generation, ai-driven accessibility enhancements, automated post-production narration, multi-language audio description support, cloud-based streaming integration.

The expansion of online streaming services is anticipated to drive the growth of the artificial intelligence (AI)-generated audio-described video market. Streaming services are digital platforms or applications that deliver media, such as videos, music, or live broadcasts, directly to users over the internet without the need for downloads. The growing availability of high-speed internet has made it easier for users to access high-quality content anytime and anywhere, increasing overall digital media consumption. AI-generated audio-described video improves accessibility for visually impaired viewers by automatically providing audio descriptions of on-screen content. This technology enables streaming platforms to reach a wider audience, enhancing inclusivity and engagement. For example, in January 2024, a report published by Nielsen Holdings plc, a US-based media measurement and analytics company, indicated that in 2023, audiences in the United States streamed a total of 21 million years’ worth of video content, representing a significant 21% increase compared to the 17 million years’ worth streamed in 2022. Consequently, the growth of online streaming services is propelling the artificial intelligence-generated audio-described video market.

The increasing adoption of smartphones is expected to drive the growth of the artificial intelligence (AI)-generated audio-described video market. A smartphone is a mobile device that integrates a cellular phone with advanced computing features, internet connectivity, and a variety of applications, allowing users to make calls, send messages, browse the internet, and perform multiple digital functions. The growing adoption of smartphones is mainly attributed to improved internet accessibility, which allows more people to connect, communicate, and access online services easily. Smartphones facilitate broad access and real-time engagement, enabling artificial intelligence (AI)-generated audio-described videos to reach a wide range of audiences efficiently. For example, in March 2024, according to ConsumerAffairs, a US-based consumer news and advocacy platform, smartphone ownership in the United States rose to 92% in 2023 from 86% in 2022. Furthermore, it was projected that in 2024, American adults will spend, on average, over 4.5 hours daily on their mobile devices. Hence, the increasing adoption of smartphones is propelling the artificial intelligence-generated audio-described video market.

Major companies in the artificial intelligence-generated audio-described video sector are concentrating on creating advanced solutions, such as AI-driven natural language narration tools, to enhance accessibility and simplify video content production. These tools leverage artificial intelligence to transform visual elements into human-like spoken audio, offering comprehensive audio descriptions for visually impaired viewers. For instance, in January 2025, YuJa, Inc., a US-based software firm, introduced AI-generated enhanced audio descriptions as part of its Gen AI Video PowerPack. This technology automatically produces precise and detailed narrations for video content, temporarily pausing playback to convey essential visual information without disrupting the original audio. The platform also features an interactive editor for refining descriptions and integrates with other AI video tools, enabling efficient and scalable deployment of accessible video content.
