How it works

  1. Step 1

    Upload your video

    Drag in an MP4, MOV, or WebM file — audio is extracted in your browser.

  2. Step 2

    AI captioning

    AI generates timed captions from the speech and can translate them into 50 languages.

  3. Step 3

    Edit & export

    Review captions line by line, then export SRT/VTT for YouTube, TikTok, or your editor.

Get subtitles out of any video

Upload a video and SubtitleFlow extracts the audio in your browser, transcribes the speech, and gives you a timed subtitle file. Because the subtitles come from what is said, it works for videos that never had subtitles, for downloads whose subtitle track is missing, and for clips you only have as a single file.

  • Works with MP4, MKV, MOV, AVI and WebM — no conversion first.
  • No subtitle track needed: subtitles are generated from the speech.
  • Review and correct every line and its timing before you export.
  • Translate the subtitles into 50 languages, then export SRT or VTT.

Useful when you want the dialogue of a movie, lecture, interview or social clip as a subtitle file you can edit, reuse, or translate.

Frequently asked questions

Will the captions stay in sync with my video?

Yes. Captions are generated with precise start/end times from the spoken audio, and you can fine-tune any line in the editor before exporting — so the final SRT/VTT stays perfectly in sync.

Which platforms can I publish the captions to?

Export standard SRT or VTT files that work with YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Bilibili, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, and most online players and editors.

Can I translate the captions into other languages?

Yes. Generate captions in the original language, then translate them into 50 languages with context-aware AI while keeping the timing intact.

Is it secure for private videos?

Yes. Videos are processed over an encrypted connection, stored privately to your account, never shared or made public, and removed under our data-retention policy.

How do I get subtitles from a video for free?

Upload your MP4, MOV, or WebM to SubtitleFlow — the audio is extracted in your browser, then AI generates timed captions from the speech. Review and edit each line, then export an SRT or VTT subtitle file. Starting is free and needs no account.

How do I add captions to a video for YouTube or TikTok?

Generate captions from your video with SubtitleFlow, fine-tune them in the editor, and export an SRT file (for YouTube) or VTT. Upload that file alongside your video, or burn the captions in with your editor. You can also translate the captions into 50 languages for an international audience.

What is the best AI tool to auto-generate video captions?

SubtitleFlow auto-generates captions straight from a video's audio with accurate timing, supports 50 languages, and lets you review every line before exporting SRT or VTT — so you get platform-ready captions without manual transcription or hand-syncing.

How do I extract subtitles from a video?

Upload the video to SubtitleFlow. It extracts the audio in your browser, transcribes the speech into timed lines, and lets you review them and export an SRT or VTT file. No account is needed to start.

Can I extract subtitles from an MKV file?

Yes. Upload the MKV like any other video and SubtitleFlow generates a timed SRT from its speech. If the MKV already contains a subtitle track and you only need that exact track, a track tool such as MKVToolNix can copy it out without transcription.

Can it read hardcoded (burned-in) subtitles from the picture?

No. SubtitleFlow does not read text from the video frames; it creates subtitles from the spoken audio. That usually gives a cleaner, fully editable file — and it works even when the burned-in subtitles are in a language you don't need.

Can I get the subtitles in another language?

Yes. After the subtitles are generated in the original language, translate them into any of 50 languages with the timing kept, then export SRT or VTT.
