What is a good HeyGen alternative for video translation?

If you translate videos you already filmed and don’t need avatars, AI Video Dubbing is built for that alone: it splits each speaker, keeps their voice in the new language and adds lip sync or subtitles. Ten minutes of dubbing uses 15 credits, the Starter pack at $9.90 with no subscription. HeyGen details as listed on 3 November 2026.

Who should switch, and who should stay

HeyGen does more than translate. If you only need your own videos in another language, you may be paying for the rest.

Switch: you translate your own footageCourses, ads, interviews and vlogs you already filmed. You need your voice in a new language, not a new presenter.
Switch: a few videos a monthPacks never expire. $9.90 once covers 10 minutes of dubbing, with no monthly plan to cancel.
Stay: you make avatar videosWe don’t generate presenters or avatars. If your videos start from a script, not a camera, HeyGen fits better.
Stay: you need a rare languageHeyGen lists 175 languages; we subtitle 70+ and dub 65+ in your own voice. Check yours on our language list before you move.

Course creators who already filmed the course

The lessons exist. They need to speak Spanish and Portuguese, in the instructor’s voice.

Course creator · 6 modules

Upload each lesson, pick the languages, and every one comes back in the instructor’s own voice. Course terms go in the glossary once, up to 100 of them, and stay the same in every module.

Read the translated script and fix a line before it is voiced, on any pack, not only on a higher plan.

  • Instructor’s voice kept
  • Glossary across modules
  • Edit lines before voicing

Agencies translating client ads

Thirty-second spots in five markets, billed back to the client per job.

Short ads use few credits, and pack credits never expire, so a quiet month costs nothing. Product names and prices are kept exactly as said.

Music and sound effects stay under the new voice, so the spot still sounds like the one the client approved.

NGOs with filmed field videos

Real people on camera, who should still sound like themselves in Hindi, Bengali or Swahili.

Each speaker in the video is split out and gets a voice built from their own. Your team checks doses, dates and names in the script first.

Subtitles alone cost the least, for programmes on a tight budget.

What one job gives you

The dubbed video, the audio on its own, and subtitles in both languages with the same timings.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best HeyGen alternative for translating videos I already filmed?

If you only translate your own footage, AI Video Dubbing does that job alone: your voice in 65+ languages, optional lip sync, and subtitles in 70+, paid per minute with packs that never expire. If you also make avatar videos, HeyGen covers both.

Is it cheaper than HeyGen?

For a few minutes a month, yes: 10 minutes of dubbing uses 15 credits, the Starter pack at $9.90 once, against HeyGen’s $29-a-month Creator plan. At hours a month, compare the per-minute rates on both pricing pages.

Can I make AI avatar videos here?

No. We translate videos you upload: the speaker keeps their face and their voice, now in another language.

Does it support as many languages as HeyGen?

No. HeyGen lists 175 languages. We subtitle 70+ and dub 65+ in your own voice, which covers the widely spoken ones. Check the language list for yours.

Can I check the translation before it is voiced?

Yes, on every pack and plan. Read the script, edit any line, and add up to 100 glossary terms that are kept or translated your way.

Can I try it free before leaving HeyGen?

The first 60 seconds of any video are free to preview, no sign-up. A verified account adds 3 free credits for 30 days.
