YouTube has made the dubbing feature available to everyone. So, what will change with this feature? Here are the details.
The world’s largest video platform, YouTube, has officially launched a groundbreaking step to eliminate the language barrier between creators and viewers. The feature that allows adding multiple voiceovers in different languages to a single video—tested for a long time with a limited group of creators—is now available to all creators on the platform.
YouTube dubbing also supports Turkish
The power of this feature had already been proven by successful tests carried out over the past few years by some of YouTube’s most popular names, such as MrBeast. By adding professional dubbing options in multiple languages—including Turkish—MrBeast managed to multiply his global audience and break growth records. Viewers being able to easily select dubbing in their native language from the video’s settings menu dramatically boosted both watch time and engagement.
Now that this infrastructure is open to all creators—not just select channels—millions of YouTubers have the chance to break geographical boundaries, create their own “MrBeast effect,” and reach entirely new audiences across different countries.
In the current system, while YouTube provides the infrastructure, the responsibility of preparing voiceover files in different languages is left to the creators themselves. This means YouTubers need to work externally with professional voice actors or dubbing studios for their videos.
However, YouTube aims to completely eliminate this process in the future. The company also announced that it is developing an AI-based automatic dubbing system to support this step. This technology, called Aloud, can translate and provide voiceovers in languages such as English, French, German, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, and Spanish.
The most striking feature of this system is its ability to generate dubbed audio that closely matches the creator’s own voice tone and emphasis. Thanks to this, even automatically generated dubs can preserve the authenticity and sincerity of the video. With YouTube’s integrated AI solution, global content creation will become easier and more accessible than ever before.
