Automatic language detection handles the recording. Your selected language is translated automatically after transcription. Review the original and translation together. Video translation produces text and subtitles; it does not create a dubbed video.
From recording to translated text
- 01
Upload your English video
Upload the original recording directly on this page. Use a file with clear speech and let automatic language detection identify the spoken language. Keep background music and overlapping voices as low as possible.
- 02
Check the English transcript
Read the original transcript and automatic translation on this page while listening to the recording. Check names, numbers, and missed words, then save any text corrections.
- 03
Translate into French and export
The French translation is generated automatically with your transcript. Compare it with the original and download TXT, SRT, or VTT directly. Sign in to save the task and access account export formats.
Make the translation useful
Compact English instructions can expand into longer French captions. Review subtitle reading speed while the original video plays, especially during demonstrations and rapid slide changes. Match translated labels to the French version of your product or interface and keep tu or vous consistent. The spoken explanation may omit an on-screen label, so supplement that spelling during review without assuming the transcript has read the image.
What to check in your recording
- Preview reading time when French captions are longer than the English speech.
- Use consistent French interface labels and forms of address.

Choose your output
Export SRT or VTT to import translated captions into a video editor. Review reading speed, line breaks, and the timing around scene changes before publishing. TXT is also available directly; account users can additionally export DOCX, PDF, or CSV for a script or handout. Subtitle export does not burn captions into the video.
Ways to use the translated text
- French subtitles for English tutorials
- French scripts from recorded webinars
- Translated training handouts

Before you upload
What should I review when translating English video into French?
Watch warnings and conditions alongside the demonstrated action to ensure the French caption appears in time. Review line breaks and product terminology in the intended editor. Verify visible labels manually, and keep the chosen form of address consistent across every instruction in the video.
Can I keep the English transcript as well?
Yes. The original transcript remains available in the task alongside the translation. Check it against the recording, correct errors, and select the original or translated version when exporting. A translation should not be treated as a word-for-word record of what the speaker said.
Does this translate the video’s speech or text shown on screen?
This workflow transcribes the spoken audio in an uploaded video. It does not perform OCR on slides, signs, or embedded captions, and it does not replace the spoken voice. Add any important on-screen spelling when you review the original transcript.
Do I need an account, and is translation free?
Try one task a day without signing in, with up to 30 minutes per recording and 120 minutes a month. The selected translation is included. A free account allows 3 tasks a day and saves your results; guest usage is carried over.
Which export formats are available?
Guest results can be downloaded as TXT, SRT, or VTT. Sign in for DOCX, PDF, and CSV exports. SRT and VTT preserve segment timings for subtitles. Check terminology and subtitle readability before sharing the translated result.
