Frequently asked questions
Does it work with VTT too?
Yes. Paste SRT or VTT; the format is detected automatically.
Are captions joined into sentences?
Each caption becomes its own line, so you can still follow the flow and paragraph it however you like.
I don’t have subtitles yet. Can I make them?
Yes. Use the subtitle generator to transcribe a video into SRT first, or get plain text directly from the transcriber.
