How to Convert Subtitle Files

Four steps to convert any subtitle or transcript format — no software, no upload, no account.

Step 1

Paste or drop your SRT file

Copy the content of your .srt subtitle file and paste it into the input area, or drag and drop the file directly. The tool detects the SRT format automatically.

Step 2

Timestamps are stripped automatically

The converter parses every SRT cue and extracts only the text lines, discarding sequence numbers, timestamps, and blank separator lines.

Step 3

Review the plain text output

The output panel shows the full transcript as flowing plain text — readable, searchable, and ready to paste into any document or AI tool.

Step 4

Copy or download as TXT

Click Copy to paste the text anywhere, or click Download to save a .txt file. No account required and nothing is sent to any server.
