Frequently Asked Questions

Our AI models are designed to match voice timbre automatically. For even more precise matching, we offer advanced voice modelling technology that requires just 5 minutes of high-quality voice data to create an exact voice match.
No worries! We handle translations in two ways: through our AI models for quick turnarounds, and through our network of native songwriting experts for nuanced, culturally-aware translations. Our experts ensure the translations maintain the song's meaning and emotional impact while fitting naturally in the target language.
For AI-generated translations, we do not take any royalties - you retain 100% of the rights. For translations involving our songwriting experts, we follow traditional songwriting commission structures with clear terms established upfront.
While instrumental tracks aren't required, they're helpful for ensuring perfect alignment. We strongly recommend providing at least the chord progression to maintain musical coherence. This helps us ensure the translated vocals fit naturally with your music.
AI translations can be completed within minutes. For expert-assisted translations, the timeline typically ranges from 2-5 business days, depending on the complexity and language pair.
