The second option is to provide us with URL of YouTube, Vimeo or other on-line services. We download the data and convert them into text quickly. You are norified by email when the conversion is done. You can also edit the transcript yourself in our web editor later. If you are a developer, feel free to integrate our API. It's easy.

Use-Case: Making movie subtitles in 4 steps

Let's go through 4 easy steps for making subtitles from scratch for a movie or your home/company video. Subtitles are usually stored in a text file with time stamps to synchronize the text with the video. Examples of such text formats are SRT or TT.

You need to have a software for making the subtitles (unless you want to edit the text file directly). You have several choices - to download a desktop application (AHD Subtitles Maker Professional, ...), use a web service (http://CaptionsMaker.com, http://amara.org, http://SubtitleHorse.com), or use a smart web service as http://SpokenData.com.

What is the difference between standard and smart web service for making captions? You need to set the timing of each particular subtitle by yourself (example here). And this can be pretty annoying job. And that is where the smart web service for making caption can help you - it will find the places where speech occurs automatically! So you need just to fill in the text. Pretty good right?

So what are the steps you need to do?
