## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace DupDub you would be making a voice model, which you can rent by the minute but not make. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It costs $132 a year.

- You could not: A voice model, which you can rent by the minute but not make.
- You could not: A voice model trained on your recordings.
- You could not: A video editor.
- You could not: Speech turned into text you can trust.
- You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Canva and ChatGPT among them, and has an API.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
