Video Subtitles

Timestamped subtitle drafts, without uploading your video

Import lectures, interviews or unreleased videos into Quiet Typist to extract the speech locally and get a timestamped transcript. From there, proofread it, split it into segments and move on to your own editing or subtitling workflow.

A reliable first draft for subtitles and video editing

Quiet Typist focuses on local video transcription with timestamps, saving you from typing everything up from scratch. You then do the final subtitle proofreading yourself.

Import video files directly

Timestamps included

Text segments come with timestamps, so you can find each line in the video and adjust subtitle timing.

A first draft of your subtitles

Start with readable text, then proofread names and terms, line breaks and pacing by hand.

Unreleased footage stays local

Lectures, training sessions, interviews and videos awaiting release don't need to be uploaded to any website.
