Automatic video subtitles
Upload a video or audio file and AI recognises the speech, sets timestamps and prepares a subtitle file for your editor or platform.
What subtitles in Clipia.ai are
Subtitles in Clipia.ai is an audio studio tool that turns speech in a video into a timed subtitle file. Recognition runs on ElevenLabs Scribe models and supports 101 languages. You can fix text and segment boundaries, then download SRT or VTT.
How to make subtitles easy to read
Voice above the music
Recognition slips more often when music or noise covers the speech. If the clip has a version without the music bed, make subtitles from it: the edit is the same and the text comes out more accurate.
Verbatim is optional
Subtitles are read on the go, so filler words, repeats and slips can be cut in the editor. A short line is read faster than an exact copy of spoken speech.
Pick the format for the platform
SRT works with almost every video editor and platform, while VTT is usually needed for a player on a website. If unsure, start with SRT.
Where subtitles help
Social media clips
Many short clips are watched with the sound off: subtitles hold viewers who scroll on the bus or at work.
Accessibility for every viewer
Subtitles serve people with hearing loss and viewers watching in a second language: reading is easier than catching fast speech by ear.
Lessons and webinars
In a recorded lesson, subtitles make terms easy to follow and help students find the moment a topic was explained.
Search on video platforms
A subtitle file uploaded with the clip gives the platform the text of the speech, which helps the clip show up for its topic.
