Add Subtitles to Video

Whatever the video is — a course lesson, a podcast clip, an interview, a client deliverable — it needs subtitles, and typing them by hand is the slowest job in editing. Upload your file and Eliro transcribes the audio, syncs every line, and burns the captions in so they display on any platform and any device. One workflow, every video you make.

One Subtitle Workflow for Every Kind of Video

From a 30-second clip to an hour-long recording, the process is the same: upload, review, export

Any Format In, Anywhere Out icon

Any Format In, Anywhere Out

MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM, MKV — upload what you have. Because subtitles are burned in, the output plays correctly on every site and device with no extra files.

Transcription You Can Trust

Accents, multiple speakers, and technical vocabulary all come through. When something does need fixing, the transcript editor makes it a ten-second job.

Burned In, Not Bolted On icon

Burned In, Not Bolted On

No separate SRT to manage or platform caption settings to fight. The text is part of the video itself, identical everywhere it's viewed.

Styling for Any Use Case icon

A clean, minimal look for client and corporate work, or animated word-by-word styles for social — both live in the same tool.

More Than a Transcription Pass

Match the Subtitles to the Job

A webinar recording and a TikTok clip should not wear the same captions. Control fonts, colors, size, and placement so each video gets the treatment its audience expects.
