About English recordings

Accents from anywhere are fine: American, British, Irish, Indian, Nigerian, South African or Australian English, and speakers using English as a second language. Recordings where people switch between English and another language keep each part in its own language. You can add a Spanish, Arabic, Hindi or any other translation as a second SRT at no extra cost.

How to make English subtitles

  1. Upload the video or audio (up to 5 GB) or paste a link from YouTube, TikTok, Facebook or another platform.
  2. Keep English as the spoken language (or auto-detect), add a translation if you also want subtitles in another language, and pay once.
  3. Download the English SRT file and add it to your video in YouTube Studio, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut, VLC or any player that reads SRT.

What the English SRT file contains

Numbered subtitle blocks, each with a start time, an end time and the English text spoken in between. It is plain UTF-8 text, so you can open it in any text editor, correct a name or a word and upload it again. You also get the full transcript as TXT, with and without timestamps.

Subtitles in English and in a second language

Choose a translation language before paying and you get two SRT files with identical timings: the original English subtitles and the translated ones. One translation is included in the price, so bilingual or translated captions for YouTube, courses and social video take no extra work.

Captions for YouTube, social video and editing

YouTube Studio accepts SRT files directly under Subtitles. Most video editors import SRT as a caption track that you can style and burn into the picture; for TikTok, Reels or Shorts you can paste the text into the app's own caption tool. The file is yours to edit and reuse, with no watermark.

Questions

How do I add the English SRT to a YouTube video?

In YouTube Studio open the video, go to Subtitles, add English as a language, choose Upload file, select "With timing" and pick the SRT file. The captions appear once YouTube has processed them.

Are the subtitle timings accurate?

Each subtitle block starts and ends with the speech it contains, based on the timing of the recognised words. Long silences, music and overlapping voices can shift a line slightly; you can adjust any time in a subtitle editor or a plain text editor.

Can I get English subtitles translated to Spanish?

Yes. Pick Spanish (or any of 141 other languages) as the translation language before paying. You get the English SRT and a Spanish SRT with the same timings.

How much do English subtitles cost?

$1 for a file up to 60 minutes and $3 up to 10 hours, the same for every language. You see the exact price after the file is checked and before you pay, and there is no subscription.
