Vocnu vs ElevenLabs dubbing
ElevenLabs Dubbing replaces the speech in a file with AI voices that keep each speaker's identity, in 90+ languages. Vocnu reads a translation over the lowered original sound and adds subtitles, in a browser extension as you watch or for a file you upload. They are made for different jobs.
For Chrome 120 or newer, Brave and Edge on a computer.

Which one to choose
Choose ElevenLabs if you make videos for others to watch, such as interviews, ads or a channel in another language, where every speaker should keep their own voice, and you want to edit the result line by line in Dubbing Studio.
Choose Vocnu if you watch: it voices YouTube, online courses, streaming sites and live streams in your browser as you play them, keeps the original sound under the translation, and costs €0.13 to €0.20 a minute, with no subscription needed. For a file, it gives an MP4 with the voice-over, subtitles as SRT, VTT and ASS files, and the voice-over audio.
