The basics

Input: YouTube links (up to 10 at a time), video or audio files, Google Drive
Languages: Speech recognition in 60 languages
Output: SRT and VTT subtitle files, or an MP4 with the subtitles burned in
Length and size: No limit on video length or file size
Cost: 1 credit per minute of transcription. Sign-up includes 10 credits, and free-plan exports carry a watermark. See pricing

Besides video, you can upload MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, FLAC or OGG recordings.

Turn on speaker labels before you start and each line is tagged with the person speaking, which makes interviews and group recordings readable.

The transcript opens in an editor. Correct names and technical terms, then download SRT or VTT, or burn the text into the video.
