All your video translation questions answered
How does English to French translation work?
Upload your English video and Synthesia's AI transcribes the audio, translates it into French, clones each speaker's voice, and re-syncs their lip movements, producing a natural French dub without a studio or voice actor.
Is it free to translate my video from English to French?
Yes. Your first minute is free to translate right here, and you can dub longer videos for free inside the app.

Subtitles are auto-generated in the language of your script, so you get both French and English captions that viewers can toggle on or off in the Multilingual Player
