Upload a video or audio file and get subtitle cues back, split into readable lines with timings. Every line is editable before you export, because auto-transcription gets names and jargon wrong and a subtitle you cannot correct is worse than none. Exports .srt and .vtt, up to 500 MB and 30 minutes per file.
Files are deleted from our server within 24 hours.
Record and share free with Clipy. No watermark, no viewer signup.
No credit card. Viewers never need an account.
Drop in a video or audio file up to 500 MB and 30 minutes. Transcription runs on our server and returns cues split for readability, not one cue per sentence.
Edit any cue in place. Product names, people's names, and technical terms are what automatic transcription most often gets wrong, and they are usually the words that carry the meaning.
SRT is the widely accepted default for uploads and editors. VTT is the web standard used by HTML video. Both download straight from your browser.
Upload the .srt alongside your video wherever it plays, or render it into the picture with burn subtitles into video. Burned-in captions are the right call for feeds that autoplay muted, since there is no track for the platform to strip or the viewer to enable.
Speech recognition returns segments that follow pauses, which can run far too long to read on screen. Cues here are capped at roughly 42 characters per line, two lines, and seven seconds, the conventions broadcast subtitling settled on because they track how fast people actually read while also watching. Long segments are split at those limits rather than shown as a wall of text.
SRT for uploading to a video platform, an editor, or anything that asks for a subtitle file. VTT for an HTML5 video track element on a web page. The cues are identical; only the header and timestamp punctuation differ.
Good on clear speech and steadily worse with heavy accents, crosstalk, or background noise. That is exactly why every cue is editable before export rather than downloading straight to a file.
Yes. Export the .srt, then run it plus your video through burn subtitles into video to render the captions permanently into the picture.
No. Edits live in your browser tab until you export. Download the file before closing the page.
