Features
Just the Words, No Clutter
Drop a subtitle file and get back clean prose — every timestamp, cue number and styling tag removed automatically. Perfect for reading, studying or repurposing.
Timestamps Stripped
Cue indexes and 00:01:23 timecodes are removed so you read the dialogue as flowing text, not a timeline.
Styling Tags Removed
ASS override codes and inline VTT markup like <c> or <v Bob> are cleaned out — only the spoken words remain.
Your Way
Choose a single flowing paragraph, one line per cue, or keep timestamps as a readable transcript.
Every Common Subtitle Format
Upload SRT, VTT or ASS — the format is auto-detected. Full Unicode support means Chinese, Japanese, Korean and every other language comes through intact.
SRT, VTT & ASS
The three formats you actually run into — from YouTube, Premiere, VLC, HTML5 players and anime fansubs.
Auto Format Detection
Drop any subtitle file and we figure out whether it's SRT, VTT or ASS — no need to label it.
Full Unicode Support
Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Thai, emoji — every character is preserved exactly.
100% Private & Free
Your subtitle file never leaves your device — everything runs as plain JavaScript inside the browser tab.
Zero Server Upload
Files are read, parsed and extracted entirely on your own machine. Nothing is sent anywhere.
