WebVTT is the web's caption format, but plenty of tools want SubRip instead: video editors like Premiere and Resolve, desktop players, and upload forms that only accept .srt. Pepys converts a .vtt to .srt in one step, carrying every cue and timestamp across and dropping the WebVTT header and styling tags that SRT doesn't use.
Everything happens in your browser – your subtitles never leave your device, there's nothing to install, and there's no account to create. Convert a short clip or a full feature the same way, free.
