- Chinese (Simplified) is pre-selected as the target, just hit Translate.
- Review the Chinese (Simplified) translation and tweak any line inline.
- Preview it on the actual video to check reading speed and line length.
- Download your Chinese (Simplified) subtitles as .srt or .vtt.
Frequently asked questions
Is the English-to-Chinese (Simplified) translation any good?
It's powered by a large language model that translates for natural spoken register, not word-for-word, which matters for subtitles, where literal translations read awkwardly. You can edit any line before exporting, so you stay in control of the final Chinese (Simplified) text.
Will the timing still match after translating to Chinese (Simplified)?
Yes. Only the text is translated; every start and end timecode is preserved exactly, so the Chinese (Simplified) track stays in sync. Use the video preview to confirm the Chinese (Simplified) lines are short enough to read in the time available.
Is it really free to translate SRT to Chinese (Simplified)?
Single files up to the free line limit are free with no signup. Larger files and batch jobs are covered by the paid Pro tier.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Your subtitle file is parsed entirely in your browser. Only the caption text is sent to the translation engine, and it is never stored or logged.
