What makes this tool so impressive is how it preserves the creator’s voice and tone, while matching lip movements to the translated audio. Think of it like AI-powered dubbing with a personal touch.

The rollout currently supports English to Spanish and Spanish to English, with more languages on the way. For now, it’s available to Facebook creators with 1,000+ followers, while all public Instagram accounts can access the tool.

Meta continues to expand its reach in the AI race,  a space heating up rapidly with competition. This move follows growing interest in AI-based content tools like ChatGPT, Go Plan, and Cohere’s $6.8B valuation backed by AMD, showing just how fast this space is evolving.

Upload Custom Audio Tracks or Let Meta AI Do the Work

Meta’s new AI tool gives creators two main options:

• Auto-translate and lip sync using AI
• Upload your audio tracks for more control

Here’s how the AI option works before publishing a reel:

• Select “Translate your voice with Meta AI”

• Toggle on voice translation and lip syncing

• Preview how the dubbed reel looks

• Share it in one or more languages

Viewers will automatically hear the reel in their preferred language, but can also turn off translations in settings. Creators also get audience insights by language, making it easier to understand performance in different regions.

For creators who want manual control, Meta offers support through the Meta Business Suite. You can:

• Upload up to 20 translated audio tracks per reel

• Assign each track to a language

• Replace or remove tracks after publishing

This gives creators a powerful toolkit to scale their content globally while keeping it authentic.

Meta’s focus on creator-first tools aligns with broader shifts across the AI space. Tools like ChatGPT’s rising app revenue and warnings from leaders like Altman about the AI bubble show that creators and businesses are both doubling down on AI-driven growth,  but with a growing need for ethical considerations.

Best Practices from Meta for a Smooth Experience

Meta has also released a few tips to help creators maximize their reach using AI dubbing:

• Use face-to-camera Reels with clear speech

• Avoid background music or excessive noise

• Don’t overlap dialogue (AI currently supports two speakers)

• Post consistently to build a multilingual audience

The company also recently updated its Edits video editing app, bringing in real-time previews, silence-cutting tools, local audio import, and more.

These upgrades make the entire Reels creation process smoother and more powerful,  a must for creators looking to grow across borders.

But Meta isn’t just focused on features. A recent leak of Meta’s internal AI rules revealed some of the safeguards and policies being tested behind the scenes.

These leaks suggest that Meta is aiming to balance innovation with responsibility, especially as creators begin to rely on AI to reach wider audiences.

Meta’s latest translation tool is one more step in making that future real,  a world where content doesn’t get lost in translation, and where a single creator can truly speak to the world.
