Targum Video

Targum Video is an AI-powered service for translating video content across languages. Targum Video accepts social media links, video uploads, and mobile recordings, with translation into 99+ languages listed on the pricing page. The service addresses people trying to understand videos in other languages, as well as hobbyist translators and creators or businesses handling larger volumes.

Targum Video takes its name from an Ancient Aramaic word meaning translation, according to the website. The page describes applying that concept to videos with AI and advertises translation in seconds. That speed is a product claim rather than a documented processing guarantee for every video.

Targum Video combines several ways to submit videos with translation and download features that vary by plan. The dashboard is listed across the paid tiers, while Basic adds downloadable video and subtitle files. Creator/Business includes queue priority and watermark controls for users with larger translation or transcription workloads.

Targum Video lets users begin with a supported social media link or a video file. The homepage also describes dragging a file onto the page and recording from a mobile device. The translation interface presents agreement to terms and conditions and a Translate my video control, while the plan comparison lists translation through a dashboard.

Targum Video also lists bot-based access, but the availability notes matter. The pricing card marks the Twitter @vidtranslator bot as temporarily down, despite the comparison table listing Twitter translation support. Basic includes Telegram bot access. API access is marked coming soon for Creator/Business, so the supplied page does not establish an available API.

Targum Video describes Starter as a plan for understanding short social media videos in other languages and Basic as a hobbyist translator tier. Creator/Business targets creators and businesses with large volumes of video to translate or transcribe. These audiences correspond to differences in downloads, upload limits, queue priority, and retention.

Targum Video advertises getting started for free and lists paid monthly subscriptions: Starter at $6 USD, Basic at $15 USD, and Creator/Business at $50 USD. Annual billing is advertised with 2 months free. These are explicitly introductory prices, accompanied by a notice that prices go up July 15, 2023, rather than an unqualified current-price statement.

Targum Video lists 30 monthly minutes for Starter and 300 in the Creator/Business comparison. Basic is inconsistent: the pricing card states up to 90 minutes per month, while the comparison states 60 minutes. Creator/Business also lists post-paid metered usage at $0.2/min. The supplied text does not explain the free allowance or reconcile the Basic discrepancy.

Targum Video's documented strengths include multiple input methods, broad language coverage, and paid options for downloading translated videos and subtitle files. The plan comparison also makes duration, file size, and retention constraints visible. Availability notices and inconsistent pricing details limit what can be concluded from the page about current access and allowances.
