Subtitle studio · launching soon

Subtitles, cut to fit.

Auto-generate captions from speech, fix the words and timing, cut or merge SRT files, translate, and burn bold captions into vertical video — all in your browser.

How it works

  1. 01

    Drop in your video or audio

    Upload a clip, podcast or lecture recording — or bring an existing SRT, VTT or ASS file you need to fix.

  2. 02

    Transcribe, edit and re-time

    Speech-to-text drafts the captions. You fix words, split long lines and nudge timing on a waveform until it lands.

  3. 03

    Export or burn in

    Download a clean subtitle file for YouTube or your NLE, or render captions straight into a vertical video for TikTok, Reels and Shorts.

Every subtitle job in one studio

From the first rough transcript to the final burned-in export, without juggling five single-purpose tools.

  • Auto-generate subtitles

    Speech-to-text turns spoken audio into timed caption lines as a first draft you can correct, not a black box.

  • Line editor that keeps up

    Edit text, split or join cues, and see characters-per-second warnings while you type.

  • Cut, trim and merge SRT

    Remove a section, split a file at a timestamp, or join parts back together with timings recalculated.

  • Shift and stretch timing

    Fix out-of-sync subtitles with a constant offset, or stretch them between two sync points for frame-rate drift.

  • Translate subtitles

    Create a translated track that keeps the original timing, then review it line by line.

  • Burn captions for vertical video

    Bold, readable caption styles positioned inside the safe area of 9:16 frames, rendered into the video.

Formats: SRT · WebVTT · ASS/SSA · burned-in MP4

Built for people who ship video

Creators

Caption short-form clips fast, keep lines punchy, and burn them in so they read with the sound off.

Editors

Clean up client SRTs, conform timing after a re-cut, and hand back files that pass delivery specs.

Educators

Make lectures and tutorials accessible, fix auto-captions, and publish translated tracks for more learners.

Status: in development

CutMySub is launching soon.

We are building the studio now. There is no sign-up list yet — when early access opens, it will be announced right here on cutmysub.com. In the meantime, our guides cover auto-captioning, timing fixes and burn-in step by step.

FAQ

Can I use CutMySub today?

Not yet. CutMySub is in development and launching soon. Until then, the guides on our blog walk through the same subtitle tasks with tools you already have.

Which subtitle formats will it support?

The plan is to import and export SRT and WebVTT, with ASS/SSA for styled captions, plus burned-in (hard-coded) captions rendered into the video file.

How accurate is automatic transcription?

Speech-to-text works best on clear audio with one speaker at a time. Music, crosstalk and heavy accents lower accuracy, which is why CutMySub is built around fast correction and re-timing rather than one-click output.

Will it work for TikTok, Reels and YouTube Shorts?

Yes, vertical 9:16 video is a core use case: caption styles are designed to sit inside platform safe areas, away from the buttons and descriptions overlaid on the right and bottom of the screen.

What is the difference between hardsubs and softsubs?

Softsubs are a separate track or file the viewer can turn on and off. Hardsubs are drawn into the video pixels and always visible. Our guide on burning subtitles explains when to use each.

Can I fix subtitles that drift out of sync?

That is one of the main jobs CutMySub is for: shift all cues by an offset, or stretch timing between two reference points when the drift grows over the video.

How much will it cost?

Pricing has not been decided yet. We will publish it here before launch.
