SubClipper: Extract and Translate On-Screen Subtitles

Capture subtitles shown directly on videos and turn them into translatable text. Works on YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok

You've seen it before. A subtitle scrolls across a video and you want to copy it — for a quote, for a translation, for notes. But the text is "burned into" the video itself, locked inside the pixels. You can't select it, can't save it, can't utilize it. SubClipper unlocks that text. WHAT YOU CAN DO → Capture any subtitle on screen with one click → Or let SubClipper run in the background and build a full transcript as you watch → Translate each line into one of 15 languages, instantly → Export your transcript as .txt, .srt, .vtt, or .csv WHO IT'S FOR → Language learners → Researchers and journalists transcribing video interviews, lectures, or clips for quoting → Content creators who want subtitle files (.srt / .vtt) from videos that don't have caption tracks → Anyone who's ever wanted to copy a great quote, a sign, or a caption from a video WHERE IT WORKS YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. Any video with visible text. HOW IT'S DIFFERENT Most subtitle tools rely on caption tracks that creators upload — which often don't exist for foreign content, user-generated videos, or text that's "burned into" the picture. SubClipper reads the pixels on screen directly, so it works on anything with text you can see. Most translation tools only work on web pages. SubClipper brings the same instant-translate experience to video. SUPPORTED LANGUAGES Reads (11): English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Chinese (Simplified + Traditional), Japanese, Korean, Russian, Ukrainian Translates to (15): English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Chinese (Simplified + Traditional), Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hindi, Vietnamese, Thai PRIVACY Video frames are only sent to our servers when you actively capture or extract — never in the background. Translation happens entirely in your browser, so the text you translate never touches our servers. We store only your usage count, nothing else.
