Before you start

Are all four online subtitle tools free?

Yes. Quality checking, text and timing editing, SRT/VTT conversion and subtitle merging are free without an account. Video transcription, translation, text removal and dubbing use separate Weydub workflows and pricing.

Which free subtitle tool should I choose?

Use the checker to find file and readability problems, the editor to correct cue text or times, the converter to switch between SRT and VTT, and the merger to combine episode files or an existing shared timeline. Start with the file task you need to finish.

How do I use the tools if I have never edited subtitles before?

Download one of the examples on this page or select your own SRT/VTT file. Open the relevant tool, inspect the text or findings, make the required changes and download the result. Keep the source and test the output with the video before publishing.

Can I process and download multiple subtitle files at once?

Yes. The tools accept multiple subtitle files. Checker, converter and editor outputs can be downloaded in a batch ZIP; the merger creates one combined subtitle file. Practical batch size depends on browser memory and cue count.

What formats and languages do the tools support?

The tools support SRT and VTT. The file tools work with subtitle text rather than a fixed list of translation languages. They can retain Unicode text such as English, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Hindi and Arabic when decoded correctly. For garbled text, choose the original encoding and inspect the preview. Exports use UTF-8; review right-to-left display in your destination player.

Will they work on Mac or Windows without an installation?

Use a current desktop browser on macOS or Windows; no app installation is required. A desktop screen is more comfortable for comparing cues and reviewing batches. Keep a downloaded copy of your work, especially before closing a private-browsing session.

Do I need to upload subtitles or videos to a server?

Subtitle file processing happens in your browser, without sending the selected files to a Weydub processing endpoint. This does not describe the separate video translation or dubbing services, which process uploaded media. Keep original files and download the result you want to retain.

Can these tools extract, translate or remove burned-in subtitles?

No. They work with existing subtitle files. Speech transcription, OCR extraction, translation and removal of text already rendered into video pixels are separate workflows. Choose the relevant video tool if the only source you have is the video.

Will my changes and subtitle styles be preserved?

Keep the original files and review a downloaded sample. Cue text and timing are the main supported content; advanced styles, positioning and WebVTT settings may not survive a basic export. Editor drafts are local and best-effort, not an online backup.

Can I use the outputs with YouTube, a video editor or a player?

Use the format accepted by the destination, then test timing and text display there. YouTube supports SRT and WebVTT under its published caption rules. These tools create subtitle files; they do not upload captions, burn text into a video or approve a platform release.

Working with the video, too?

A subtitle file is one part of a release. Explore the relevant workflow when you also need translation, text removal, dubbing or market-specific review.
