AI dubbing: how it works and when to use it
What AI dubbing is, how it is done step by step, how it differs from traditional dubbing with voice actors and when each one makes sense.
AI dubbing replaces the original voice of a video with a voice in another language generated by artificial intelligence. The process has five steps: transcription, translation, cloned or synthetic voice generation, syncing to the video and human review. It costs a fraction of dubbing with actors and is delivered in days.
AI dubbing vs. traditional dubbing
| AI dubbing | Traditional dubbing | |
|---|---|---|
| Voice | Your cloned voice or a natural synthetic voice | Voice actors in a studio |
| Turnaround | Days | Weeks |
| Cost | Low, per minute of video | High: studio, director and actors |
| Best for | YouTube, courses, podcasts, corporate | Film and series with heavy acting |
When a human actor makes sense
When performance is at the heart of the work, as in fiction with intense emotional scenes, a voice actor is still the best option. For informative, educational or creator content, AI dubbing delivers a natural result at a much lower cost.
