How video subtitle translation works
Choose a target language
Generate timed captions, then translate the caption text while keeping the timeline intact.
Review before export
Check names, local phrases, reading length, line breaks, and export format before publishing.
Translation still needs caption review
Subtitle translation is not only a language swap. A translated caption can become longer, split at the wrong moment, or use the wrong wording for a name, product, place, joke, or local phrase.
AutoCaption keeps the caption track editable after translation. Review the text in the final video layout, then export the file your platform, client, archive, or website needs. If you want the original and the translation on screen together rather than as two separate files, the subtitle merger stacks two languages into one dual subtitle file, pairing cues by overlap so the timing of the first file stays the spine.
If you already have subtitle text and only need a format change, use the SRT to VTT converter or VTT to SRT converter instead.
Video subtitle translation use cases
Creator videos
Translate captions for Reels, TikTok, Shorts, YouTube uploads, and clips cut from a longer recording.
Client and team review
Export SRT, VTT, or text when another editor, translator, client, or website needs the caption track.
Mixed-language speech
Review code-switched lines, names, brand terms, and local spellings before publishing.
Captioned video export
Use a styled video export when the translated subtitles should be visible in the final file.
Subtitle translation questions
Can AutoCaption translate video subtitles?
Yes. Upload a video, generate timed captions, choose a target language, review the translated caption text, then export the format available in the editor. Open the caption generator.
Does subtitle translation keep the original timing?
AutoCaption keeps the caption timing in place while translating the text. Review each line because translated wording can be longer or shorter than the original speech.
Can I translate captions for social videos?
Yes. Use the editor for Reels, TikTok, Shorts, YouTube videos, product demos, podcast clips, and client review files. Check line breaks and safe placement before export.
Can I upload an SRT file to translate it here?
This page is for translating captions generated from a video in AutoCaption. The SRT and VTT converter pages handle subtitle-file format conversion, not subtitle translation.
Which languages can I translate captions into?
