Quick Answer

On their pricing pages on 15 September 2026, AI dubbing worked out to about $0.78 to $1.32 a minute on Rask’s yearly plans and $2.23 to $2.70 for extra minutes on ElevenLabs. On Percify a dub in the speaker’s own voice costs 72 credits a minute, about $1.15 to $1.56 depending on the plan, and video translation with lip sync costs 180 credits a minute.

Prices read from each vendor’s own pricing page on 15 September 2026; per minute figures are plan price divided by included minutes.

AI dubbing prices compared from each vendor's page on 15 September 2026: Rask, ElevenLabs, HeyGen, AI Studios, VEED and Percify, per minute, with what a 10 minute video costs.

AI dubbing costs from under a dollar to a few dollars a minute, and what moves the price is what the dub does: keep the speaker's own voice, resync the lips to the new language, or both. Below is what each tool charged on its own pricing page on 15 September 2026. Where a plan bundles minutes, the per minute figure is the plan price divided by the minutes it includes.

What decides the price

Four things set the bill, and the table above differs mostly on them:

  1. Your voice or a stock voice. ElevenLabs delivers every dub in a clone of the original speaker, and Rask clones the speaker's voice in 32 languages. A dub in someone else's voice is a different, cheaper product on most tools.
  2. Lip sync. Resyncing the mouth to the new language is a separate step. HeyGen does it on every translation; Rask includes multi speaker lip sync from Creator Pro; ElevenLabs lists none, because its dubbing is audio.
  3. How minutes are bundled. Rask sells a pool of minutes for the year, so none are lost at the end of a month. ElevenLabs includes a few minutes each month and bills the rest. Percify takes credits from the same balance as everything else you make.
  4. Minimums. On Percify the ElevenLabs model bills at least a minute (72 credits) and the HeyGen model at least 30 seconds (90 credits), so a very short clip costs more per second.

What a 10 minute video costs to dub

Worked out from the prices above, for one 10 minute video into one language:

  • Percify, ElevenLabs Dubbing model: 720 credits, about $15.18 on Creator (which has 1,233 credits a month) or $11.52 on Ultra.
  • Percify, HeyGen Video Translate model: 1,800 credits, more than Creator holds in a month; about $39.00 on Scale (3,000 credits) or $28.80 on Ultra.
  • ElevenLabs: within Pro ($99 a month, 44 minutes included); on Creator ($22, 9 minutes) the tenth minute costs $2.45 more.
  • Rask AI: 10 of the 1,200 yearly minutes on Creator Pro, about $7.80 of its $936 a year, if you use the whole pool.

How Percify prices dubbing

Percify runs two dubbing models and bills both in credits, the same credits you spend on images, video and voice.

Percify is free to start, and paid plans begin at $26 a month for 1,233 credits. No plan puts a watermark on the output, and every plan carries commercial rights. Credits come back when a run fails. For the whole process, from transcript to the final check, see the AI video dubbing guide.

The cheapest option, by situation

  • A few short clips: HeyGen's free plan translates 3 videos a month of up to 3 minutes each.
  • A steady volume you can plan for: Rask's Creator Pro pool comes to $0.78 a minute if you use all 1,200 minutes in the year, and ElevenLabs Pro includes 44 minutes a month.
  • Your own voice, no lip sync, pay as you go: Percify's ElevenLabs Dubbing model at about $1.15 to $1.56 a minute.
  • Lip sync in the most languages: HeyGen Video Translate, on HeyGen or on Percify.

What these prices leave out

  • Plan caps. A per minute price only holds while the plan has minutes or credits left. Percify's Creator plan holds 1,233 credits a month: about 17 minutes with the ElevenLabs Dubbing model, or 6.8 with HeyGen Video Translate. ElevenLabs Starter includes 2 minutes a month.
  • Minimums. On Percify a 20 second clip is billed as a full minute on the ElevenLabs model and as 30 seconds on the HeyGen model.
  • One language per run. Every figure here is for one target language. On Percify each language is its own run, so three languages cost three times as much.
  • Currency. VEED's price is in euros, as its page showed from Europe.

Check a dub before you publish it

A cheap dub that has to be redone is not cheap. Before a dubbed video goes out, check four things:

  1. Names and product terms. Read the translated script before you render; brand names, prices and technical words are the easiest to get wrong.
  2. Timing. A translation runs longer or shorter than the original, so listen to the ends of sentences for rushed or stretched speech.
  3. The mouth on close ups. Without lip sync, a close up still shows the mouth shapes of the original language. Use a lip sync model for those shots.
  4. Text in the picture. Titles and captions burned into the video stay in the original language. Percify's image translation models redo them for thumbnails and stills.

On the pricing pages we read on 15 September 2026: Rask AI $0.78 to $1.32 a minute on its yearly plans, ElevenLabs $2.23 to $2.70 for each extra minute, and on Percify about $1.15 to $1.56 a minute for a dub in the speaker's voice or about $2.88 to $3.90 with lip sync, depending on the plan.

Free plans exist but they are small. HeyGen's free plan translates 3 videos a month of up to 3 minutes each, Rask's free trial includes 3 minutes, and ElevenLabs' free plan includes 0.4 minutes of dubbing a month.

About $15.18 on Percify's Creator plan with the ElevenLabs Dubbing model (720 credits), about $39.00 on Scale with lip sync through HeyGen Video Translate (1,800 credits), or 10 of the 1,200 yearly minutes on Rask Creator Pro (about $7.80). ElevenLabs Pro includes 44 minutes a month.

Yes. ElevenLabs delivers each dub in a clone of the original speaker, Rask clones the speaker's voice in 32 languages, and on Percify both the ElevenLabs Dubbing and HeyGen Video Translate models keep the speaker's voice.

Only some tools do it. HeyGen Video Translate resyncs the lips on every translation, Rask includes multi speaker lip sync from its Creator Pro plan, and ElevenLabs dubbing is audio only.
