Show HN: LingoSync.ai translates videos into 40 languages Dear HN, a friend and I are testing the waters of launching a SaaS offering. We've built a prototype of LingoSync.ai, which will allow customers to translate the audio of any video with spoken text into 40+ languages. The process will be 100% automatic.

It's not perfectly lip-synced (we also do not alter the video stream), but translated sentences start where original sentences started, which is good enough for many use-cases. We are currently running a closed beta and created a landingpage which showcases the product and allows to sign up for the waiting list: https://lingosync.ai/en Feedback and sign-ups are welcome! https://lingosync.ai/en May 2, 2023 at 06:11PM
