Speaks vs Vidby

Speaks is a collection of custom ChatGPT GPTs built to help you function in foreign languages. The site links to six language-specific bots: Falo for European Portuguese, Hablo for Spanish, Spreche for German, Papo for Brazilian Portuguese, Parlo for Italian, and Parle for French.

Each GPT goes beyond straight translation. Put text in quotes for a direct translation, or chat for broader language help. The bots correct grammar, explain their translations, and suggest idioms that fit the context. They show their workings so you can check that the output matches what you meant.

The project is aimed at learners who want more than a quick machine translation. Google Translate and DeepL are faster if you only need a literal result, but Speaks GPTs are for people who want to understand why a phrase works and pick up the language along the way.

Vidby translates, dubs, and subtitles videos for teams that need to reach viewers in other languages without hiring a full localization studio. Upload a file or paste a link, pick one of four quality tiers from fully automated AI dubbing to human actor voiceover, and get a localized video in minutes instead of weeks.

Where most dubbing vendors quote opaque per-minute rates, Vidby publishes subscription plans with included credits and a checkout calculator for one-off orders. The platform covers 150+ languages and dialects, offers kid, teen, and elderly AI voices, and includes lip sync, voice cloning, and burnt-in subtitle options on paid tiers.

YouTube lists Vidby as a recommended vendor for multi-language audio tracks. Corporate customers include media brands registered with Disney and Warner Bros. supplier programs. A free tier exists with watermark exports, while Basic starts at $9.95 per month with 100 credits.
