Captions are no longer optional
Most social video is watched on mute. Without captions the first three seconds carry no message at all, which is the difference between a viewer stopping and a viewer scrolling past. Captions are also what makes a video usable for deaf and hard-of-hearing viewers — a requirement, not a nice-to-have.
TranscribeX generates a timestamped SRT from the video file itself. There is no separate audio export step, and the .srt that comes out is the format YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn, Vimeo, Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, and DaVinci Resolve all accept without conversion.
Because SRT is plain text, it stays editable: fix a misheard word, adjust a timecode, or hand it to a translator who can replace the text while keeping the timings. Upload it to YouTube and the captions sync themselves — the timecodes are already in the file.

Frequently asked questions
SRT (SubRip) is a plain text file listing each caption line with a start and end timecode. It is the most widely supported subtitle format — YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn, Vimeo, and every major editor read it.
In YouTube Studio open the video, go to Subtitles, choose Add, and upload the .srt file. YouTube reads the timings from the file, so nothing needs syncing by hand.
Yes. An SRT is plain text — open it in any text editor to fix a word or nudge a timecode, or import it into your editor and adjust it there.
No. Upload the video file itself and the audio track is read automatically.
Subtitles are generated in the language spoken in the clip — 50+ are supported. Translated subtitles are a separate step: export the SRT and translate the text, keeping the timecodes intact.
