Subtitles & translation
Generate subtitles automatically from the audio in your video, then correct the words that matter before you publish. Aixcut runs subtitle generation in a desktop Chrome or Edge workspace, so the captions land on the same timeline as the picture you already edited.
STEP 01
Bring the clip into the project and start the automatic caption pass over the dialogue.
STEP 02
Read the generated text against the audio, fixing product names, figures and anything the recogniser guessed.
STEP 03
Step through the captions as they appear, tighten any that lag or run long, then export.
Automatic subtitle generators are fast on clean speech and unreliable on everything else: accents, overlapping speakers, brand names and numbers. Budget the review time in proportion to how unusual the vocabulary is. A technical demo needs more correction than a casual vlog.
Check three things on every pass: proper nouns, numbers and units, and the split points between segments. A wrong unit or a badly placed line break changes what the viewer understands, even when every word is spelled correctly.
Captions cover dialogue for viewers who cannot hear it. Subtitles also translate or paraphrase for a different language. A transcript is the plain text with no timing. Decide which one the destination needs before exporting, because each has a different use.
Common questions about this task, its limits and how to judge the result.
Add the video, run the automatic caption pass, then correct names, numbers and timing before exporting.
Accuracy depends on the recording. Clear, single-speaker audio works well; accents, overlapping voices and technical vocabulary need manual correction.
Burned-in text cannot be separated from the picture. Remove or re-edit the original overlay first, or start from a clean version of the export.
Platforms differ, and some accept a caption file next to the video while others want the text embedded. Check the platform requirement, then export the format it accepts.
Trial credits follow the current usage rules. Check the task cost before generating captions and review text and timing afterwards; exporting itself does not consume credits.
