Translate subtitles free, timings intact

Yes, for recordings up to 20 minutes — 10 a day, no account and no watermark. Transcribing itself stays free up to 60 minutes and 1.5 GB. Translation runs on our own GPU here, and a long recording keeps that card busy for minutes on end, which is why the free version has a length limit.

You can still transcribe them and download the subtitles for free; only translating them is out of the free version. A paid option for long recordings is coming — tell us through the feedback button on the site if you want it, because that's what decides how soon it arrives.

Yes, exactly the same. Only the text is translated; every time code is copied over unchanged, so the translated subtitles line up with the picture the way the original did.

Not yet — you upload the audio or video and ScribeGrab makes the subtitles and translates them in one go. Ask for it through the bug button on the site if you'd like to bring your own SRT.

English, Spanish, French, German, Dutch, Portuguese, Italian, Polish, Turkish, Russian, Arabic, Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean and Chinese. The recording itself can be in about 100 languages.

Yes. Tick 'Also make a clean or subtitled version' before uploading, translate, then choose that language in the burn-in panel and you get an MP4 with the translated text in the picture.

No. Both the transcription and the translation run on our own hardware, and your upload and results are wiped within 45 minutes (24 hours if you bought a month pass — that longer window is part of what the pass is for). See privacy.

Good enough to publish for most videos, and it keeps subtitle lines short instead of turning them into paragraphs. It's machine translation though — give anything important a read-through before you publish it.

Yes. Upload the video to ScribeGrab, pick English as the target language, and download SRT/VTT subtitles in English with the exact same timings as the original.

Upload the audio or video to ScribeGrab — it detects the spoken language automatically — then choose your target language and press Translate subtitles.

Yes — upload the VTT (or SRT) file above and pick a target language; the translation keeps the original timings so it still lines up with the video.

Yes — upload the VTT file above as-is and pick a target language; the translated file keeps the same .vtt format and the original timings.

Not yet — the target list is sixteen languages (English, Spanish, French, German, Dutch, Portuguese, Italian, Polish, Turkish, Russian, Arabic, Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese), and Bulgarian and Tamil aren't on it. The source recording itself can be in about 100 languages either way.

ChatGPT can translate text you paste, but it doesn't keep subtitle timings intact automatically. DeepL is excellent for plain text but isn't built for timed SRT/VTT files either. This page keeps every time code untouched by design.

ElevenLabs is mostly a voice and dubbing platform, not a subtitle translator, and it charges by usage. This page translates the text and keeps the original timings, free up to 20 minutes.

YouTube's auto-translate leans on the same auto-captions that already struggle with names and jargon, so errors compound. This page translates from a cleaner transcript first, which is why the result usually reads better.

No add-on for either — Stremio and Bazarr both manage subtitles inside their own apps. This page is a stand-alone upload box: translate here, then move the file wherever you need it.

Same answer as above — no direct connection to either. Translate the file here first, then add it manually wherever Bazarr or Stremio expects it.

Same process as any other source: get the video or audio file, upload it here, and pick English as the target language — Bilibili isn't connected directly, but the output works the same.

If they're burned into the picture (hard-subbed), this page can't read them — only spoken audio. If they're a soft track inside the video container, upload the video and this page transcribes and translates the spoken audio instead, which usually matches anyway.

Upload the audio or video here and the timings stay locked to the original — only the text itself changes language.

Yes — run the translation again with a different target language and each version downloads separately.

No — the spoken language is detected automatically; you only choose the language you want to translate into.

Yes — the translated file stays .srt (or .vtt if that's what you started with), same format, new language.

Upload the recording, pick English as the target language, and the translated SRT downloads with the same timings.

Only a separate soft file — burned-in captions are pixels, not text, so there's nothing for a translator to read there.

Both — SRT and VTT come out of the same upload regardless of which language you translate into.

Upload the video, pick English as the target, and the translated SRT and VTT download a few minutes later.

Not directly — upload the original audio or video here instead, and this page makes and translates the captions in one pass.

No — English is just one of the sixteen target languages, free the same as any other, up to 20 minutes per recording.

The video or audio, not an existing subtitle file — this page builds the subtitles from the recording and translates them together.

Not as a batch yet — each file runs through the upload box one at a time, up to 10 a day.

Recordings up to 20 minutes translate for free; transcription alone goes up to 60 minutes and 1.5 GB.

The same upload — pick a target language once and both the translated subtitles and the plain translated text come back together.

Yes — the spoken language is detected automatically, and you separately choose the subtitles language you want to end up with.

Yes — a label like Speaker 1 stays in front of the line instead of being translated into something else.

Yes — this one: no account, no email, just upload and pick a target language.

No — only spoken audio; text baked into the video picture can't be read either. What comes back is a fresh soft subtitle file (SRT/VTT) built from the audio, not an edit of anything you upload.

No — it works from the original audio or video, not a pre-made subtitle file, so there's no format to match first.

Yes — every time code is copied over unchanged; only the text itself gets translated.

A few minutes total, covering both the transcription and the translation pass.

Sixteen target languages are available, spanning European, Middle Eastern and East Asian languages.

Yes — everything happens in the browser tab, nothing to install before or after.

Our own model on our own hardware — nothing sent to a third-party translation API.

Genuinely free up to 20 minutes per recording — no trial countdown, no hidden paywall.

Only up to 20 minutes per free translation — a full film needs splitting into shorter parts first.
