Translate any finalized English project into another language directly inside Studio – no external tools or separate workflow needed.

Available on Enterprise plans using WellSaid Studio project types.

Before You Start

• Source project must be in English – one language at a time.
• Translation creates a new, separate project in the same folder – your original is never modified.
• Section structure, formatting, pauses, and audio settings carry over.
• Cues, custom pronunciations, and phonetic respellings do not carry over.
• For high-stakes content, native speaker review is recommended. 

Translate a Project

1. Open your finalized English project in WellSaid Studio.
2. Click the three-dot menu (...) next to the project name and select Translate.
3. Choose a target language from the drop-down.
4. Select a target voice in the chosen language.
5. Click Translate to confirm.
   
   Your translated project will appear in the same folder as the original.
    
6. To change the voice, click Select All, then click See All Voices in the right sidebar.
7. Review the translated script, then edit and render as usual.

Note: Very long scripts may hit the character limit. Try splitting the content before rendering.

FAQs

Q: Which languages are supported?

A: All non-English languages available in Studio. See full list of languages.

Q: Will translating my project change the original?

A: No. Translation always creates a new, separate project. Your original is never modified.

Q: What will happen to brand and product names?

A: Brand, product, and technical system names are preserved as written and not translated.

Q: If I make edits to my original script, will the translated projects automatically update?

A: No. The translation process creates a separate, unique project that must be edited separately from the source.

Q: What about acronyms like HIPAA or GDPR?

A: Acronyms are preserved and not translated. TTS pronunciation in the target language may still sound off — use a custom replacement if needed.
