How do I generate Dutch subtitles?

Pepys builds Dutch subtitles for you: upload Dutch audio or video, or paste a link, and it transcribes the speech and exports timestamped SRT or VTT caption files in minutes. It captions both Netherlands Dutch and Belgian Flemish and auto-detects Dutch. Your first 60 minutes are free, no card.

How dutch subtitle generator works

01

Upload or paste a link

Add a Dutch recording or paste a link – any audio or video format works.

02

Auto-generate captions

Pepys transcribes the spoken Dutch and breaks it into timestamped subtitle cues.

03

Download SRT/VTT

Export a ready-to-use SRT or VTT file with the timing already in place.

Dutch viewers expect subtitles on nearly everything – the Netherlands and Flanders subtitle foreign content rather than dub it, so ondertitels are second nature there. Point Pepys at a Dutch clip, lecture, or interview and it transcribes the speech and cuts it into properly timed SRT or VTT cues, ready to drop into your player or editor. Soft-g Flemish and hard-g Netherlands Dutch are both captioned cleanly.

Caption timing is where Dutch fights back: long compound words don't want to fit one line, and the spoken accent marks – the trema in geërgerd, the acute in café – have to survive into the file intact. Pepys handles the line breaks and keeps the characters correct, and you can translate the captions into another language too. Your first 60 minutes are free, credits never expire, and we never train on your audio.

Clean paragraphs. No more um's and ah's.

The left is what Pepys hands back – logical paragraphs with the filler stripped out, punctuated and readable. The right is the raw, one-line-per-segment dump most transcribers leave you with.

um so yeah everyone keeps telling you to like lead with your best line right but uh honestly if you give away the whole answer in the first second you know there's basically no reason for anyone to keep watching so the hook isn't kind of the smartest thing you say it's like a loop you open that they need to close and um that's the part that actually keeps people around

Dutch subtitle generator – questions, answered

How do I generate Dutch subtitles?

Upload Dutch audio or video, or paste a link – first 60 minutes free, no card. Pepys returns downloadable Dutch SRT/VTT captions in minutes.

SRT or VTT – which do I pick?

Both are on offer. SRT is the most widely supported across players and editors; VTT is the web-native format for HTML5 video. Export whichever your platform wants.

Are the subtitles burned into the video?

No. You get a downloadable sidecar file – an .srt or .vtt – that you load alongside the video, so the captions stay separate from the picture and editable.

Do Dutch accents and special characters come through?

Yes. The trema (ï, ë), the acute on loanwords like café, and every other Dutch character are preserved in the file, and you can tweak any cue inline before exporting.
