Download YouTube subtitles as SRT, TXT, or more.

Paste a video’s link, open the transcript, and export it — a real .srt subtitle file, plain text, Markdown, or structured JSON. All free, no account.

Full transcript in seconds — searchable, timestamped, yours to keep.

The export comes straight from the video’s caption track — the same underlying text and timing YouTube uses for its own subtitles, packaged into a file you can use elsewhere.

.srt

A standard subtitle file for video editors and most players.

.txt

Plain text — for reading or pasting anywhere.

.md

Markdown, with light structure for notes.

.json

Raw timestamped segments, if you’re working with the data yourself.

Questions, answered.

Are these real subtitle files I can load into a video editor?

Yes — the .srt export is a standard SubRip subtitle file with the same timing as the video’s captions, and it opens in editors like Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, and CapCut, or any player that supports subtitle files.

Do I need an account to export?

No — every export is free and instant, no login.

Which format should I use?

For a video editor, use .srt. For reading or pasting into a doc or an AI chat, use .txt or .md. For working with the raw timestamped data yourself, use .json.

Will the subtitles match the video’s original language?

Yes — whatever language the video’s captions are in is what gets exported.

Does this work if the video only has auto-generated captions?

Yes — auto-generated captions export the same way as creator-uploaded ones; the accuracy is whatever YouTube’s auto-captions already have.
