What is AI Dubbing?

AI-powered video dubbing automatically translates and replaces a video's original dialogue with a new language. Dubbing is considered an important part of video localization as it allows viewers to watch and listen to content in their preferred language.

Automatic video dubbing in 30+ languages

Kapwing’s automated dubbing platform helps companies translate libraries of content without high costs, complicated vendor agreements, or painfully long turnaround times. That allows content and localization teams to keep translation costs low to quickly scale their international content and improve the ROI from localization.

Natural-sounding AI voices and voice cloning

Our premium AI voices, powered by ElevenLabs, feature natural-sounding tones and cadences that keep close pace with your original video. If you have a speaker or voice you'd like to use across every video, our Voice Cloning feature can mirror and translate your voice into your desired language; even if you aren't a native speaker, you can sound like one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Bob, our kitten, thinking

Can AI be used for dubbing?

Absolutely! The best AI tools to use for every stage of video dubbing include an audio translator, a subtitle generator, and a voice over generator. Luckily, Kapwing has all of these AI-powered tools (and more!) to help accelerate your video editing process.

How does AI dubbing work?

AI dubbing technology transcribes the original language of a video, aligns it with the audio, translates it, and then generates a matching voiceover in the new language. Supported by ElevenLabs AI dubbing, Kapwing has a built-in video dubber, as it is a video editing platform where you can dub a video, auto-generate subtitles, and continue editing—all on one platform.

What is video dubbing?

Dubbing in a video involves adding or substituting audio in a production to finalize the sound design of the project. Oftentimes, you will hear video dubbing in the context that a video has been translated and the speakers' audio is in a different language than its original.

What is a UN style voice over?

A UN style voice over is a translated narration layered over a video’s voice over in its original language. The UN style voice over is usually louder than the original audio, however the original audio is still audible. Most commonly used for news stories, documentaries, and real-life events, a UN style voice over is used to preserve the original voice over’s meaning and context. 

How can I translate the voice over in my video?

You can translate existing voice overs in a video with AI dubbing in Kapwing. This automated voice translation process involves generating subtitles translated into multiple languages, analyzing the text for semantics, then translates the audio content to make it accessible to a global audience.

By the far the most user friendly software to use.
As a housewife at home looking to start a Youtube channel for fun with absolutely zero editing experience, it was so easy for me to teach myself via their YouTube channel. It takes the tediousness out of editing and encourages creativity. As long as Kapwing is around, I will be using their software.

Love this site.
As a English Foreign Language Teacher, this site helps me to quickly subtitle interesting videos that I can use in class. The students love the videos, and the subtitles really help them to learn new vocabulary as well as better understand and follow the video.
