How do I translate a transcript?
To translate a transcript, paste the text into Pepys (or upload the recording and it transcribes first), pick a target language, and AI returns a translation that preserves the timestamps and speaker labels, across 99+ languages. Export it as TXT, Markdown, DOCX, PDF, SRT, or VTT. Your first 60 minutes are free, no card required.
How transcript translator works
Paste your transcript
Drop in the transcript text – or upload the recording and Pepys transcribes it for you first.
Pick a language
Choose a target language and AI translates segment by segment, keeping the timing and speakers aligned.
Export the translation
Export the translated transcript to TXT, Markdown, DOCX, PDF, SRT, or JSON.
Most translators flatten a transcript into one paragraph and lose the timestamps and who-said-what. Pepys translates segment by segment instead: paste a transcript, pick a language, and get back the same structure in another tongue – every cue still timed, every speaker still labeled.
No transcript yet? Upload the recording and Pepys transcribes first, then translates. Because the timing survives, a translated SRT or VTT still lines up with the original video. It works across 99+ languages, we never train on your content, and you pay only for what you process; credits never expire.
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

Transcript translator – questions, answered
How do I translate a transcript?
Paste your transcript on this page, pick a target language, and Pepys returns a translation that keeps the timestamps and speaker labels. No transcript yet? Upload the recording first. Your first 60 minutes are free, no card.
Will the timestamps and speaker labels survive the translation?
Yes. Pepys translates cue by cue, so each segment keeps its timing and speaker label – a translated SRT or VTT still lines up with the original video.
Which languages can I translate between?
Pepys auto-detects the source across 99+ languages and translates into any of them, so you can take a French transcript into English, Spanish, Hindi, and more.
Can I export the translated transcript as subtitles?
Yes. Export the translation as an SRT or VTT subtitle file with the original timestamps preserved, or as TXT, Markdown, DOCX, PDF, or JSON.
Do you train on my transcript?
Never. We don't train AI on your transcripts, audio, or translations, and you can auto-delete your files after processing.
