Subtitles & Translation

What is it

AI subtitle and translation tools automatically transcribe spoken audio into accurate, well-timed captions, and translate them into other languages — covering accuracy checking, timing adjustment, and formatting captions for readability.

Why it matters

A large proportion of video is watched with sound off, especially on social media, and translated captions dramatically expand a video's potential audience — making subtitling one of the highest-return, lowest-effort steps in modern video production.

Exam tip

Always proofread AI-generated captions before publishing, particularly for names, technical terms, and homophones — automatic transcription is highly accurate but not perfect, and an uncorrected error in captions is far more visible and embarrassing than a spoken mistake.
