Subtitles.app

What it is

Subtitles.app transcribes audio and video and turns the result into subtitles; the old FreeSubtitles.AI address now redirects to it. You upload MP4, MKV, MOV, MP3, WAV or FLAC files, or paste a link from one of the many video sites its importer supports, and download the transcript as SRT, VTT or TXT. Transcripts can be translated, exported as a subtitled video and queried with an "Ask this video" feature. The free tier allows a few uploads per day of up to 30 minutes each. Pro is pay as you go at a per-hour rate, with higher accuracy, speaker identification, an editor, batch processing and API access.

Editor's notes

More context from AI BirdView

Subtitles.app stands out for how little it asks of you up front. There is no account needed for a first try, and paid use is metered by the hour instead of a monthly subscription, which suits people who caption videos in bursts. The same upload yields a transcript, a translation and a subtitled video, so one pass covers several deliverables.

  • Transcription covers 100 languages and translation reaches 120.
  • Subtitle files download as SRT or VTT, ready for YouTube and most editors.
  • A link importer fetches media from a long list of video sites, saving a download step.
  • An "Ask this video" feature answers questions about the content of a file.
  • Pro adds speaker identification, an editor, batch jobs and API access.

It is best for creators, teachers and small teams who need captions or translated subtitles occasionally and would rather not pay for an idle subscription. A practical tip: run a short clip through the free tier first to check accuracy for your accent and audio quality, then buy a small credit top-up for longer files, since the site says credit never expires.
