We're thinking subtitling might help with dubbing efforts but we won't go in subtitles direction for now. Amara has this field covered really good.

Long term goal is to become a YouTube for non English speaking users :)

That's completely wrong direction IMO, and there's no market called 'Youtube for non-English users'. You should implement a HTML5 overlay so users could enable dubs on any existing Youtube video. The page with embedded videos would just include dubjoy.js or user could use a browser extension to enable dubs on Youtube itself. Then list all already dubbed videos on your website.

Pretty good long term goal, but I think it's awesome you're basically helping spread stuff to a wider audience.
