More free subtitle tools
Same quality bar. Still free. Still no upload.
Your files never leave your device
Free to use, with no account, no usage limit and no watermark, because the work runs on your device rather than on our servers.
This is not a promise about how carefully we handle your upload. There is no upload. The file you choose is read into memory by your own browser, processed there, and handed back as a download — the tool has no server component and makes no network request with your data.
- Nothing is stored. We never receive the file, so there is no copy to retain, no retention period to disclose, and nothing to delete on request.
- Nothing is transmitted. No upload endpoint, no analytics payload carrying file contents, no third-party processor.
- You can verify it. Load this page, disconnect from the internet, and use the tool. It still works, because everything it needs is already on your machine.
- Nothing persists after you close the tab. Files are held in page memory only — not in local storage, not in a cache, not in a database.
A note on wording, because it matters: we do not describe these tools as “encrypted.” Encryption protects data that travels to somebody else's computer. Your file does not travel, so there is nothing to encrypt and nothing to intercept — which is a stronger guarantee than encryption, not a weaker one. The page itself is served over HTTPS like the rest of the site.
This makes the tools safe for material you are contractually barred from uploading to third-party services — client footage under NDA, unreleased campaign assets, anything covered by a confidentiality clause.
How it works
1. Paste the script
Use the final VO or on-screen copy you want as cues.
2. Set pace
Choose how fast cues advance so the track roughly matches the read.
3. Download SRT
Export SubRip for your editor, burn-in tool or platform upload.
Questions
What does free SRT from text do?
It splits a pasted script into timed SubRip cues at a chosen reading pace so you get a starter caption track without uploading audio.
Will timings match my recording exactly?
They are an estimate from pace, not a forced alignment to a waveform. Nudge with the timing shifter or re-transcribe from audio when precision matters.
Is speech uploaded?
There is no speech step. Only the text you paste is used, and it stays in the browser.

These rearrange files. Versely makes new ones.
Everything on this page works on a file you already have, which is why it costs nothing. Generating something that did not exist (video from a prompt, a voice, a score) runs a model, and that costs credits.
