Which subtitle formats do I get?
SRT and VTT, both timed and ready to use. On the free plan you read and correct them in the browser and download the text as TXT; the subtitle files themselves come with the unlimited plan.
English subtitles generator
Upload a video and get timed English subtitles — SRT and VTT ready to drop into your editor, no conversion step.
Yes — WhoScribe generates timed English subtitles from any video. Upload the file or paste a link and download SRT or VTT that drops straight into your editor, with no conversion step. Your first file needs no account, and every file shows its first 15 minutes free. English is one of 100 languages recognised.
- First file free, no sign-up
- Speaker labels and 90+ languages
- DOCX, PDF, SRT, VTT on the unlimited plan
Subtitles timed to your English audio
Every line is anchored to the moment it is spoken, so the file you download is already in sync. Fix a name or a piece of jargon in the browser first and the correction carries into both SRT and VTT.
English is written in the Latin script, and the transcript comes back in that script rather than romanised.
How it works
Three steps to your first transcript
-
Drop in your file
Audio or video of any length; the free plan transcribes the first 15 minutes of each file. MP3, MP4, M4A, WAV, MOV and a dozen more.
-
Pick the language
Leave the language on automatic or set it for better accuracy. Turn on speaker recognition if you need to know who said what.
-
Read, edit, export
The transcript opens with clickable timestamps — read it and fix a name straight away. A free account keeps it and exports it as TXT; DOCX, PDF, SRT and VTT come with the unlimited plan.
FAQ
Questions before you upload
Try it on this pageCan I edit the English subtitles before exporting?
Yes. The transcript opens in an editor with clickable timestamps. Correct names, spelling or jargon, then export — the timings stay where they were.
Do the subtitles work for video as well as audio?
Yes. Upload MP4, MOV, WEBM, WMV or MPEG directly; the audio is extracted for you. There is no need to convert the video first.
Which script will the English transcript be in?
It comes back in Latin — the script English is normally written in — not romanised. You can edit the text, search inside it and export it while keeping that script.
