Pricing Model Banva's subtitle generation and other features are free to use within a 15-minute generation quota. When creating an account, 15 minutes of free credits are automatically granted. After that, credits can be purchased to continue generating. Other features such as subtitle burning and editing are free, with no hidden fees. How credits are deducted: each generation deducts credits based on the number of video minutes; generating multiple languages deducts credits separately; videos under one minute are charged as one minute of credits.
Accuracy Banva uses AI models fine-tuned for each language, with accuracy exceeding 95%. It can handle multiple speakers, background noise, accents, and various video types. It supports translation from any language to any supported target language.
Limitations Text-to-speech or AI video dubbing is not currently supported, but video dubbing is planned for future versions.
