Paste a public YouTube URL, generate a transcript, and export subtitle files. Use SRT or VTT for editors, captions, translations, and accessibility work.
YouTube subtitle workflow
This page is for creating subtitle files from YouTube speech. Paste a public YouTube URL, generate or import the transcript, and export SRT or VTT from the result.
It is not positioned as a raw official-subtitle downloader. The workflow creates exportable subtitle files from transcript text you can review and edit.
Use it when you need captions for republishing, translation, editing, accessibility, or content review.
Create subtitle files from a transcript you can inspect before exporting.
Export common subtitle formats for editors, caption tools, and publishing platforms.
Check the transcript text before creating the subtitle file so names and key terms are easier to fix.
Translate the transcript before export when you need subtitle text in another language.
This page separates subtitle-file intent from general YouTube transcript intent.
A downloader implies grabbing an existing official caption file as-is. This page is framed differently: generate or import transcript text, review it, then export subtitle files.
That distinction matters because many teams need editable SRT or VTT files, not only whatever caption track may already exist on YouTube.
Use YouTube Subtitle Generator when the deliverable is SRT or VTT. Use YouTube to Text when the deliverable is editable text for notes, research, articles, or summaries.
The transcript result supports both, but the landing pages match different search intent and user jobs.
Create a transcript from a YouTube URL, then export subtitles.
Add a public YouTube link and start the transcript job.
Review the transcript, translate it if needed, then download the subtitle file.
