Dub Anything
Dub Anything is an open-source AI video dubbing tool that translates films into other languages using original actor voices.
Dub Anything dubs films and shows into another language while keeping original music and sound effects intact. It runs on a Windows PC with an NVIDIA GPU and uses an AI coding agent like Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor to direct the dubbing line by line. The software separates voices from soundtracks, transcribes audio using Whisper, matches voices across the show, and renders new speech through VoiceStudio. It supports translation between English, Japanese, Spanish, Korean, and Chinese. Users act as the ears to judge the acting and decide what to change, while video and audio files stay on the local machine.
