What is the difference between SRT and TXT?

An SRT file is a text file too, but every caption comes with a number and a timing line, and long sentences are cut into short screen-sized pieces. A TXT transcript keeps only the words, which is what you need for a blog post, show notes, a quote, an AI summary or a translation.

What you can do with the transcript

  • Turn a video into a blog post or newsletter: paste the paragraphs and edit lightly.
  • Write show notes and chapters faster by skimming the text instead of the video.
  • Use the timestamped version to find the exact moment of a quote.
  • Paste the text into an AI tool to summarize it or pull out short clip ideas.
  • Formatting tags (italics, colors, positions) are removed automatically, so the text is ready to paste.

From subtitles to readable text

Clean Transcript

Numbers, timing lines, formatting tags and line breaks inside captions are removed, so you get only the words.

Paragraph Mode

Joins captions into paragraphs and starts a new one after each pause, so the text reads like an article instead of a list.

Optional Timestamps

Keep a [00:01:23] timestamp in front of each line to find quotes and moments in the video.

Nothing Uploaded

The conversion runs in your browser, so interviews and private recordings stay on your device.
