# AI Video Translator & Dubbing

> AI dubbing turns a video into another language automatically: it separates speech from music, transcribes and translates the script, and re-voices it with a clone of each original speaker. Kenerate's AI dubbing runs on ElevenLabs and dubs video or audio into 33 languages — including Spanish, Hindi, French, German, Japanese, Chinese and Arabic — from 57 source languages or auto-detect. Videos can be up to 15 minutes (500 MB) with up to 32 speakers, and it works on the free plan. It changes the voice, not the lips — add lip sync after for on-camera speakers.

## In depth

### How AI dubbing works
The audio is split into speech and background, the speech is transcribed and translated, and each speaker is re-voiced in the new language with a clone of their voice, then mixed back with the background. ElevenLabs says its dubbing aims to keep each speaker's emotion, timing and tone.

### Dubbing vs YouTube auto-dubbing
YouTube's automatic dubbing is on by default for eligible creators and dubs English videos into 20 languages. It lives inside YouTube. A dubbing tool gives you the translated file for any platform — Reels, TikTok, courses or ads.
