Linguana Launches AI Video Dubbing and Localization for Creators of Every Size
TL;DR
Linguana is now offering its high quality AI video dubbing and localization directly to creators of all sizes.
Introduction
Linguana is opening its AI video dubbing and localization technology to creators of every size, making it easy to translate and dub videos into multiple languages while preserving the creator's own voice, emotion and delivery.
Creators can choose the videos and languages they want to localize and receive human-reviewed, ready-to-upload multilingual audio tracks for YouTube Multi-Language Audio (MLA) or fully localized videos, including localized titles, descriptions and thumbnails.
The new service uses the same localization technology Linguana uses to help more than 1,200 creators reach global audiences across 40 languages.
And we're now inviting creators to get early access.
What is Linguana?
Linguana is a global distribution and monetization partner for creators. Its AI video dubbing and localization technology helps creators transform their videos into multiple languages while preserving the original speaker's voice, emotion and style.
Linguana combines proprietary AI video localization technology with human review to produce multilingual content designed to feel natural and authentic to local audiences.
Today, Linguana works with more than 1,200 creators across 40 monetized languages, with localized content generating 500 million views every month.
Until now, Linguana's technology has primarily been available through our fully managed creator partnerships. We're now making that localization technology directly accessible to creators who want to manage how and where their localized content is published.
AI dubbing for YouTube Multi-Language Audio
YouTube Multi-Language Audio allows creators to add additional language audio tracks to an existing video rather than publishing the localized version on a separate YouTube channel.
Creators who want to use this approach can use Linguana to create ready-to-upload multilingual audio tracks for YouTube MLA.
You provide the video and choose the languages. Linguana handles the translation, AI dubbing and human review.
Rather than replacing the creator with a generic voice, Linguana's voice cloning and localization technology is designed to preserve the speaker's own voice and retain the personality, emotion and energy of the original content.
The result is a localized audio track that can be added to the original YouTube video, allowing viewers to watch the same video in their preferred language.
Or localize the entire video
Not every creator wants audio-only localization.
Linguana also offers full video localization, providing a ready-to-publish version of the original video for another language and market.
This can include:
- Fully dubbed video
- Localized audio using the creator's voice
- Translated and localized title
- Localized video description
- Localized thumbnail
- Human review
Instead of coordinating separate translation, dubbing, editing and design workflows, creators can receive the localized assets they need from Linguana.
More than AI voice translation
Translating the words in a video is only one part of making it work in another language.
Different languages take different amounts of time to communicate the same sentence. Multiple people may speak over one another. Music and environmental sounds need to remain intact. And a creator's excitement, humor, surprise or emotion shouldn't disappear simply because they're speaking another language.
Linguana's latest-generation AI video localization model was built around these challenges.
It introduces advanced support for overlapping speech, improved cross-language timing, higher-quality preservation of music and background audio, and greater emotional realism in localized speech.
The aim isn't simply to make a video understandable in another language. It's to make the localized version feel like the same creator and the same content to a new audience.
Human-reviewed AI dubbing
AI makes it possible to localize video at a scale and speed that traditional dubbing cannot match. But quality still matters.
That's why Linguana combines its AI localization technology with human review, providing an additional layer of quality assurance before creators receive their localized content.
Creators get the scalability of AI video dubbing together with human oversight of the final output.
How Linguana AI video dubbing works
- Choose your video - Select an existing YouTube video or provide Linguana with a video file. You can start with a single video, select videos from your existing library or discuss ongoing localization of new content.
- Choose your languages - Tell us which languages and markets you want to reach. Linguana already localizes creator content across dozens of languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Japanese and many more.
- Linguana localizes your content - Linguana translates and dubs the video using its latest-generation video localization technology, preserving the speaker's voice and adapting the delivery to the target language.
- Human quality review - The localized content is reviewed to help ensure the final output meets quality standards.
- Receive your localized content - Choose between ready-to-upload multilingual audio tracks or complete localized videos and supporting assets. You control where and how the localized content is published.
Who is Linguana's AI video localization service for?
The service is designed for creators who want high-quality video localization but are not eligible for or interested in Linguana's fully managed partnership. There's no minimum channel size required to use the new service.
The same technology, a different way to work with Linguana
Our existing creator partnership isn't going away. Linguana will continue to offer its fully managed model for eligible creators, handling localization, publishing, optimization, distribution and monetization with no upfront cost to the creator.
The new offering provides another way to work with us. Instead of Linguana operating your international channels and sharing in the revenue they generate, you pay for the localization you need and remain in control of the localized content and publishing strategy.
That means creators can choose the Linguana model that best fits the way they want to expand internationally.
Early access is now open
