TL;DR
What did u/EntrepreneurJolly231 use Argil for?
A marketer used Argil to turn one video script into several languages with lip-synced translated audio and reported where it held up and where it fell short. They say lip sync on translated audio was "better than I expected" and "the big european languages held up fine."
What they did
They took the "one script, five languages, no reshoot" approach and mostly used Argil to produce translated versions with lip-synced audio.
How it went
They say lip sync on translated audio was "better than I expected" and "the big european languages held up fine."
Worth knowing
- They found the translated audio "sounds flat," jokes and idioms "just die," and smaller languages "were rough." They had no answer yet on whether the videos actually perform in those markets.
- Price check: Argil: free plan unclear; Pro: US$50/month, or US$41.67/month on a yearly plan (US$500/year) (checked Oct 26, 2026).

Here is my video script in English: [script]. Rewrite it for a [language]-speaking audience in [country] so it sounds natural when spoken, replace any jokes or idioms with local equivalents, and flag lines that won't translate well.
