Get an SRT subtitle file for an MP4 video, timed to the speech, ready for your editor or player.

Good to know

  • Only the audio is sentOnly the audio goes up. Your browser copies the audio track out of the video first, without re-encoding it, so a 2 GB phone video usually sends 30–60 MB. If it can't (an unusual format, or no audio track), the whole file is uploaded instead.
  • Readable linesEach subtitle has at most 2 lines of 42 characters and stays on screen for 1 to 7 seconds. Add speaker names to the lines, or leave them off.
  • VTT tooNeed WebVTT for a web player? Download VTT from the same transcript.

Questions, answered

Will the SRT match my MP4's timing?

Yes. Each subtitle is timed from the speech in the video's own audio.

Can I edit the subtitles?

Yes. Fix any word in the transcript while you listen, then download the SRT.

Does my whole MP4 get uploaded?

Usually not: your browser sends only the audio track.

How do the 3 free transcriptions work?

Upload any 3 files, with no credit card. Each one is transcribed in full, with speakers and timestamps, and you see the first 30 minutes. Shorter files you get whole.

Is my audio private?

Your files are private to your account and encrypted when they're sent and stored. You can delete a file, or your whole account, at any time.
