Translate an SRT file
Input: a completed subtitle project or a source SRT/VTT with confirmed wording.
Output: translated subtitle files with fixed timing and exports included in your plan.
Common quality signal: translated text may become too long for the original subtitle duration.
Translation tools that ignore timing can create subtitles that look right but fail in delivery. TimedSubs keeps translation tied to the subtitle timeline.

FAQ
Where does translation fit?
It follows clean source timing, then creates target-language subtitle files without moving the timestamps.
Can terminology be protected?
Yes. Paid plans add protected terms and glossary capacity so names, titles, and product words do not drift.
Can I translate an SRT file online?
Yes. Upload an SRT, VTT or ASS file to translate with the same cue count and timestamps. Try up to 15 minutes, 300 cues and 2 MB without signup. For larger files, sign in and use subscription Translation Minutes or a one-time translation pack ($3 for 100 converted minutes).
Can generic AI chat tools translate SRT files?
They can produce translated text, but they do not understand subtitle structure: cue timing, line length, and term consistency need a subtitle-aware pipeline. TimedSubs keeps timestamps locked, checks exports before delivery, and protects terminology on paid plans.
What if my text is not timed yet?
Then start from the Script + Audio workflow: your script stays the text source and the audio produces the timing. See the Voiceover Script to SRT feature (/features/script-to-srt) or the Script-to-Subtitles tool (/tools/script-to-subtitles).
