Subtitle Translation Services FAQ

How quickly can you complete my subtitle translation project?

We do our best to complete all translations in 1-2 business days. However, subtitle translations may take slightly longer if they require transcription in the original language. The process of adding the subtitles back into the video at the correct time stamps may also add some time to the project. Once a Customer Success Manager opens your project, you will be able to login and see a more accurate delivery time on the project page.

Can I translate my subtitles to multiple languages?

Yes! When contacting our Customer Success team, please indicate the original language of your video/subtitles, and which languages you would like to translate them into. The representative who is managing your project will open an individual project in our system for each language, and each one will be assigned to a native-speaking subtitle translator. You will be able to see the status of each translation on your project page, and you will receive the files for each language separately.

Do I need to submit the subtitles in the original language for you to be able to translate them?

Nope! If you have the subtitles for your original language, that’s great, and we’ll be happy for you to submit them for translation. However, if you only have a video without subtitles, we just add the extra step of first transcribing the audio in the original language, and then translating the subtitles.
