Realistic AI translations that resonate with English speakers

Spanish to English audio translation is key to reaching a global audience of 1 billion English speakers across demographics in the UK, US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Expertly delivering English with proper pronunciation, tone, and nuance, however, can be very difficult. Kapwing has partnered with ElevenLabs to break this barrier, providing you with best-in-class AI voice technology that produces a natural-sounding, believable English audio translation every time.


Our online Spanish to English voice translator faithfully replicates the rhythm, intonation, and subtle inflections of native speakers, ensuring every audio file you dub resonates with English viewers and listeners. With a combination of advanced speech synthesis and deep linguistic modeling, Kapwing generates natural, non-robotic AI speech that draws in and engages native English speakers.

By the far the most user friendly software to use.
As a housewife at home looking to start a YouTube channel for fun with absolutely zero editing experience, it was so easy for me to teach myself via their YouTube channel. It takes the tediousness out of editing and encourages creativity. As long as Kapwing is around, I will be using their software.

Love this site.
As an English Foreign Language Teacher, this site helps me to quickly subtitle interesting videos that I can use in class. The students love the videos, and the subtitles really help them to learn new vocabulary as well as better understand and follow the video.
