How do I convert a MOV to SRT?

To turn a MOV into SRT, upload the .mov video to Pepys and it transcribes the speech, then produces a downloadable .srt subtitle file with correct start and end timecodes – in 99+ languages, auto-detected. The .srt is a sidecar file you load into your editor or player; your first 60 minutes are free, no card.

How mov to srt works

01

Upload your MOV

Drop in the .mov file – Pepys extracts the audio track automatically, so you don't convert anything first.

02

Pepys times the subtitles

AI transcribes the speech and splits it into cleanly timed subtitle cues with start and end timecodes.

03

Download your .srt

Grab the .srt file to load into Premiere, Final Cut, DaVinci, YouTube, or any player – or export VTT, TXT, or DOCX too.

MOV is what your iPhone, QuickTime, and most screen recorders save – but no editor reads a .mov as captions. Pepys bridges that: upload the video and get back a standard .srt file with each line timed to the moment it's spoken, ready to drop straight into your timeline or upload alongside the video.

The subtitles ride on an accurate, timestamped transcript, so the timing lines up and the words are right. It works in 99+ languages with auto-detect, there's nothing to install, and you pay only for the minutes you transcribe – credits never expire and we never train on your video.

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

Mov to srt – questions, answered

How do I convert a MOV to SRT?

Upload your .mov on this page – the first 60 minutes are free, no card. Pepys transcribes the speech and gives you a timed .srt subtitle file to download in minutes.

Does this burn the subtitles into the video?

No. Pepys produces a separate sidecar .srt file you download and load into your editor, player, or platform alongside the MOV – the video itself is never changed.

Can I get the subtitles in another language?

Yes – language is auto-detected across 99+ languages, and you can translate the finished transcript before exporting it as an .srt.

Can I also get a VTT or plain transcript?

Yes. The same transcript exports to VTT for the web, plus TXT, Markdown, DOCX, PDF, and JSON – pick the format your workflow needs.
