FAQ Subtitles

A simple subtitling job or an SRT file is one of the cheapest tasks, and translated subtitles checked by a human go up to about two to three times as much. For a long video or several languages, look at the options: every offer shows its price before you order.

An SRT file is a plain text file with the timing of each line: you can upload it to YouTube and most video players, and viewers can turn it on or off. Burned-in subtitles are part of the image: they show everywhere, which suits Reels and TikTok, but can't be corrected once the video is exported. So ask for both if your video goes out on several platforms.

Automatic subtitles, from YouTube or an editing app, are fast and often free. But they get proper names, technical terms and accents wrong, punctuation is unreliable, and a visible mistake on screen is quickly noticed. A freelancer can start from that base, correct each line, split sentences so they read at the right pace and adjust the timing.

Send the video in its final version, the script if you have one, and a list of proper names, brands or technical terms with their spelling. Give the subtitle language, the format you want (SRT or burned-in) and, for burned-in subtitles, the font and colors. For a translation, say who the audience is: subtitles are often shorter than the spoken words so they stay readable.

Ask for an example of a video they've already subtitled, in your language or field: check the spelling, how lines are split and the timing. Also look at the profile, with client reviews and statistics. You can send a short clip of your video with the Contact button before ordering: the reply quickly shows whether they're comfortable with your subject.
