Le problème

  • YouTube auto-translate can't be exported as a file
  • Manual re-translation is slow for multi-language channels
  • Timing drifts when re-timing translated text by hand
  • Generic tools treat subtitles as plain text and lose cue structure
  • Agencies charge per-word for what should be one flat pass

La solution

  • Translate the downloadable .sbv source — not viewer-side captions
  • 28+ languages in one pass
  • Timing and line breaks preserved byte-safe
  • Clean .srt/.vtt output ready to re-upload
  • One file, one pass — from $19, no login

Translate the .sbv file — YouTube auto-translate can't be exported

YouTube auto-translates captions inside its player, but those translations live on YouTube — you can't download them as a file, use them off-platform, or re-upload them as a clean language track. What you CAN download from YouTube Studio is the .sbv source file. That is what we translate.

Upload your .sbv, pick your target languages, and download translated subtitle files with timing and line breaks preserved byte-safe — ready to re-upload to YouTube or post anywhere else. One file, one pass, from $19, no login.

SBV translation for multi-platform creators and teams

Creators who post the same video to YouTube, TikTok, and a course or podcast platform need translated subtitle files, not player-locked captions. SBV is YouTube's plain-text export: no tags, just timing and text — the easiest subtitle format to translate cleanly.

Translate to 28+ languages in one pass, keep speaker names and numbers consistent across cues, and ship clean .srt or .vtt output that drops straight into any editor or platform. AI-translated — label it as such on the video.

Translate YouTube subtitles — FAQ

Can I export YouTube's auto-translated subtitles as a file?

No — YouTube's auto-translations are viewer-side and can't be exported. But you can download your .sbv source from YouTube Studio, translate it here with timing intact, and re-upload the translated file as a separate language track.

What is an SBV file?

SBV is YouTube's plain-text subtitle format: timestamps with comma milliseconds plus the caption text, no styling tags. It's the file YouTube Studio lets you download and re-upload.

Will my cue timing survive translation?

Yes. Every timestamp is preserved byte-safe, so the translated file stays in sync with the audio. From $19 per file, no login required.

Can I translate to several languages at once?

Yes. One SBV file can be translated into multiple target languages in a single pass across 28+ languages.

Do you handle SDH captions like [music] or (applause)?

Yes. SDH content is translated naturally while brackets and structure stay intact.
