Everything You Need to Know About FreeSpeakAI

General Questions

What is FreeSpeakAI?
FreeSpeakAI is a completely free AI-powered video translation service that translates videos into multiple languages with natural-sounding voices. Instead of paying money, you earn credits by watching short advertisements.
Is FreeSpeakAI really free?
Yes, 100% free! There are no subscription fees, no hidden charges, and no credit card required. You simply watch advertisements to earn credits, which you can then use to translate your videos.
Do I need to create an account?
No account registration is required. Simply visit the website, upload your video, watch an ad to earn credits, and start translating. This means your privacy is protected - we don't collect personal information.
How does FreeSpeakAI make money?
We generate revenue through advertising. When you watch advertisements to earn credits, we receive compensation from advertisers. This allows us to offer the service completely free to users while covering server costs and development.

Credits & Pricing

How do credits work?
Credits are a simple system to use our free service:
  • 1 advertisement viewed = 1 credit
  • 1 video translation = 1 credit consumed
  • Maximum 10 credits per day
  • You can translate up to 10 videos daily for free!
How long are the advertisements?
Advertisements are typically 15-30 seconds long. You must watch the entire ad to earn credits - skipping or closing the ad early won't grant credits.
Do credits expire?
Currently, credits are session-based, meaning they're stored in your browser for your current session. If you refresh the page or close the browser, you'll need to watch ads again to earn new credits. We're working on adding account features to save credits long-term.
Can I purchase credits directly instead of watching ads?
Currently, the only way to earn credits is by watching advertisements. This keeps the service completely free for everyone. We may introduce optional premium features in the future, but the ad-based model will always remain available.

Video Requirements & Limitations

What video formats are supported?
We support all common video formats including:
  • MP4 (recommended)
  • AVI
  • MOV
  • MKV
  • WebM (limited support)
  • FLV, WMV, and most other formats
What is the maximum video length?
Currently, we support videos up to 5 minutes in length. We're working on expanding this limit in future updates. If you have longer videos, consider splitting them into shorter segments.
What is the maximum file size?
The maximum file size is 200 MB. If your video is larger, you can compress it using free tools like HandBrake or online video compressors without losing much quality.
Does video quality decrease after translation?
No, we preserve the original video quality. Only the audio is replaced with the translated version. The video resolution, bitrate, and visual quality remain unchanged.

Languages & Translation

Which languages are supported?
We support 30+ languages including:
  • European: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Russian, Turkish
  • Asian: Japanese, Korean, Chinese (Mandarin), Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Tagalog
  • Middle Eastern: Arabic, Hebrew
  • Indian: Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, Urdu
  • And more languages being added regularly
How accurate is the translation?
Translation accuracy depends on several factors:
  • Audio clarity (clear speech translates better)
  • Language pair (common languages have higher accuracy)
  • Context and complexity (simple conversations translate better than technical jargon)
Generally, our AI achieves 85-95% accuracy for common language pairs with clear audio.
Can I translate videos with multiple speakers?
Yes, but currently all speech will be translated into a single AI voice. We're working on multi-voice support where different speakers get different AI voices to preserve the conversation feel.
What about videos with music or sound effects?
Our system extracts and translates only the speech. Background music and sound effects are removed in the current version. We recommend using videos where speech is the primary audio focus. Support for preserving background audio is coming in future updates.

Technical Questions

How long does translation take?
Translation speed depends on video length and current server load:
  • 1-minute video: ~2-3 minutes
  • 3-minute video: ~5-7 minutes
  • 5-minute video: ~8-10 minutes
We're using efficient but budget-friendly servers currently. We're continuously upgrading to high-performance infrastructure to significantly improve processing speed in the future.
Can I use FreeSpeakAI on mobile devices?
Yes, FreeSpeakAI works on mobile browsers (iOS Safari, Android Chrome). However, for the best experience and faster uploads, we recommend using a desktop or laptop computer.
What browsers are supported?
FreeSpeakAI works best on:
  • Google Chrome (recommended)
  • Mozilla Firefox
  • Microsoft Edge
  • Safari (Mac/iOS)
Internet Explorer is not supported.
Why is my upload failing?
Common reasons for upload failures:
  • File size exceeds 500 MB - try compressing your video
  • Unsupported format - convert to MP4
  • Slow internet connection - check your connection speed
  • Browser issues - try clearing cache or using a different browser

Privacy & Security

Is my video content private?
Yes, absolutely! All uploaded videos are:
  • Processed securely on our servers
  • Automatically deleted within 24 hours
  • Never stored, analyzed, or shared
  • Not used for training AI models
See our Privacy Policy for full details.
Do you collect personal data?
No account is required, so we don't collect names, emails, or personal information. We only collect anonymous usage statistics (like total videos translated) to improve the service.
Can I use FreeSpeakAI for commercial purposes?
Yes, you can use translated videos for commercial purposes. However, please ensure you have the rights to the original video content. See our Terms of Service for details.

Troubleshooting

To improve translation quality:
  • Ensure you selected the correct source language
