Subtitle Translator

A subtitle translator should do more than swap one sentence for another — it has to hear what's actually said in your video, render it in another language, and put it on screen at the right moment. Recapo does the whole pass for you: upload a video, the AI transcribes the spoken dialogue, translates it into your target language, and burns those subtitles straight into the picture.

That turns multilingual publishing into a single step. You don't prepare a subtitle file or line up timecodes — you start from the video itself. Choose a target language, let the AI translate and embed the subtitles, then preview the result in-page and download a finished MP4 with the translated captions already baked in.

Translation that lands on screen in sync

Because the AI works straight from your video, each translated line shows up at the moment the original was spoken. A sentence said at 01:42 appears as a translated caption at 01:42 — in Spanish, Japanese, or German. The subtitles are rendered into the picture, so the timing travels with the video no matter where you post it, and there's nothing separate to keep in sync.

One video, many audiences

Localizing for a global audience usually means juggling files and tools. Here it's one flow: feed in the video, choose the language you need, and get back a finished clip with translated subtitles already on screen. Run it again for each language you want to reach, and if you'd like the audio localized too, pair the translation with TTS voiceover in the same workspace.

  • Upload a video — no subtitle file needed; the AI hears and translates the speech for you.
  • Subtitles are burned into the picture, so they play everywhere without extra setup.
  • Full localization: translated on-screen subtitles, plus AI voiceover from the same source.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about the subtitle translator

Do the translated subtitles stay in sync with the video?

Yes. The AI transcribes and translates straight from the video, then burns each line in at the moment it's spoken, so the captions track the action exactly.

Do I need to upload a subtitle file?

No. You upload the video itself. The AI listens to the dialogue, translates it into your target language, and embeds the subtitles for you — there's no SRT to prepare.

What do I get back?

A finished MP4 with the translated subtitles burned into the picture. You can preview it in-page and download it — ready to post anywhere, with no separate file to manage.

Which languages can I translate between?

It's built around the language pairs recap and commentary creators publish in most, so you can take an English caption track into other markets or bring foreign-language subtitles into your channel's language. The supported list keeps expanding.
