Dub Video to French (Doubler une Vidéo en Français)
Turn a video in English or almost any language into French: AI writes out what's said, translates it and speaks it in a natural French voice, in time with the original and over the video's own music. Videos up to 5 minutes are dubbed free, with no sign-up.
Your video stays on your device. How?
Only the sound is sent to be written out, and only the words to be translated and spoken; none of it is kept. The music is separated and your new video is made on your device.

French for France, Belgium, Switzerland and Canada
French is the working language of around 300 million people across Europe, Africa and Canada, and French-speaking audiences are among the least willing to watch an English-only video. A dub is often the difference between a video being shared in France and being ignored there.
Courses, product videos and tutorials are the common cases. The translation reads as European French; Québécois vocabulary can be substituted line by line before the voice speaks it.
One voice, and why that matters
French has a single voice here, a woman's. That is a real limitation and worth knowing before you start: if your video needs a man's voice, French is not yet the language for it, and the honest options are to dub into English or Italian instead, or to wait.
The translation is European French. French is longer than English — noticeably so, often 15 to 20 per cent — which means more lines than usual are spoken slightly faster to stay with the picture. Short sentences in the original give the best French dub.
Accents and liaison are handled by the voice itself; what the page cannot fix is a proper noun the recogniser heard wrongly in the original. Edit that line and dub again.
Features
One voice, stated up front
French has a woman's voice only. The other six languages have both, and this page says so rather than letting you discover it.
European French
The translation reads as French from France; Québécois words can be swapped in line by line before the voice reads them.
Timed to the original
French runs longer than English, so lines that would overrun are spoken a little faster instead of drifting.
Free, no watermark
Up to 5 minutes dubbed and downloaded with no account.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a man's French voice?
Not yet. French has one voice, a woman's. English, Hindi, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and German all have a woman's and a man's voice.
Is it French from France or from Québec?
The voice and the translation are European French. You can edit any line before it is spoken, which is the practical way to make it read Québécois.
Can I dub an English video into French for free?
Yes, up to 5 minutes, with no account and no watermark. A longer video has its first 5 minutes dubbed free and the rest with ClipUtils Pro.
Is my video uploaded?
No. Only the sound is sent to be written out, and only the text to be translated and spoken; neither is kept. The picture never leaves your device, and the finished video is put together there.
