Accepts a public TikTok link · returns a synced SRT or VTT caption file you add in your editor.

How tiktok caption generator works
Paste the TikTok link
Copy a public TikTok URL and paste it in – nothing to install.
Generate the captions
Pepys transcribes the speech into timed cues and you can fix any wording inline in seconds.
Download SRT or VTT
Export a synced caption file to drop into CapCut, Premiere, or any editor – or grab the plain-text transcript.
Captions lift watch time and reach on TikTok, but typing and timing them by hand for every clip is a grind. Paste a link and Pepys transcribes the speech into timed cues, then hands you a synced SRT or VTT you can load into CapCut, Premiere, or your editor of choice – so you add captions in one drag instead of keying each line.
Tidy the wording inline before you export, then translate the captions into any of 99+ languages to reach viewers in other regions. We never train on your content, you can auto-delete files after, and you pay only for what you transcribe; credits never expire.
