What does an AI video translator do?
An AI video translator turns the speech in a video into one of 33 languages and hands the video back with the new audio. Kenerate AI's translator detects the spoken language from 57 options, translates it and re-voices each speaker with ElevenLabs, for videos up to 15 minutes. Captions are a separate tool.

Tips
Translations that read naturally out loud
Speech translation works best on clear speech and plain sentences.
Short, complete sentences translate more naturally than run-ons.
Pin the spoken language if a video switches languages.
Turn on Drop background audio if music drowns the speech.
Check product names, places and numbers after each run.
Translate first, then caption the translated video for sound-off viewers.
For on-camera speakers, add lip sync to the translated video.

FAQ
Video translator questions
7 questions
How do I translate a video?
Open Kenerate's AI Dubbing, upload the video, leave the spoken language on Auto-detect, pick one of 33 target languages and download the translated MP4. Add lip sync for on-camera speakers or captions for sound-off viewers afterwards.
Link to this answerWhich languages can it translate?
Into 33: English, Hindi, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Arabic, Russian, Tamil, Indonesian, Malay, Filipino, Tagalog, Vietnamese, Turkish, Dutch, Polish, Ukrainian, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Greek, Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, Romanian, Bulgarian and Croatian. The speech can be in any of 57 languages, or auto-detected.
Link to this answerIs translating a video the same as translating subtitles?
No. A subtitle translator changes the text on screen; a video translator changes what people hear. Kenerate translates the speech. Its Auto Subtitles tool captions the language that is spoken, so caption the translated video if you want both.
Link to this answerCan I translate a video for free?
You can try it without paying: new accounts get starter credits that work on AI Dubbing, enough to translate a short clip. Beyond that, it is priced by the length of the video, billed by the second up to 15 minutes, with automatic refunds when a run fails.
Link to this answerCan it translate a video with several speakers?
Yes, up to 32. Each speaker is re-voiced in a clone of their own voice. Set the number of speakers when people interrupt each other, so the voices stay apart.
Link to this answerCan I translate one video into several languages?
Yes, one language per run. Upload once, translate into Spanish, then run the same video again for Hindi or Japanese; each translation is saved in your library.
Link to this answerDoes the translated video keep the lip movements?
The picture is untouched, so the lips still move as in the original. For close-ups, run the translated video through lip sync so the mouth follows the new language.

How AI video translation works
What happens to the speech, and what you still check by hand.
On this page
Three steps in one run
Speech recognition writes down what is said, machine translation turns it into the target language, and speech synthesis speaks it again in a clone of each original voice, mixed back over the background sound [1]. You only see the start and the finished video.
Translate the speech or the captions?
Captions are cheaper to produce and let viewers hear the original voices; translated speech reaches people who don't read along, such as children, people watching on a TV, or anyone cooking or driving. Platforms are moving the same way: YouTube now dubs eligible videos automatically [2].
What still needs a human check
Machine translation is fluent but literal in places.
- Names, brands and product terms.
- Numbers, prices and dates read aloud.
- Jokes, idioms and wordplay.
- Technical or legal wording.
