Why not just use an online translator?

Because they pay a cloud provider per character — and that cost shapes everything about how they treat your file.

Typical online tools

Frequently asked questions

Is this subtitle translator really free? +

Yes, completely free with no limits. Translation runs on your own device using your browser's built-in translation model, so there are no per-character costs to pass on to you.

Are my subtitle files uploaded anywhere? +

No. Your file is read and translated entirely inside your browser. It is never sent to a server, which is why there is no file size limit.

What subtitle formats are supported? +

SRT (SubRip) and VTT (WebVTT) files. Timestamps, cue numbers, positioning settings and formatting tags such as <i> are preserved exactly.

Which browsers work? +

Chrome and Edge 138 or newer on desktop, because they ship the built-in on-device translation model. Support in other browsers depends on them adopting the same standard.

Is there a file size limit? +

No. Because nothing is uploaded, you can translate feature-length films and multi-hour lectures.

Does it work offline? +

After the language model downloads the first time, translation works without an internet connection.
