About the SRT to Text Converter

A subtitle file is a transcript chopped into two-second pieces, each with a number and a timestamp. Stripping that back to readable prose by hand — for show notes, a blog post, a summary, or something a search engine can index — is an hour of deleting lines.

Paste an .srt or a .vtt and get the words. Numbers, timestamps, positioning and styling tags are removed, and cues are joined into paragraphs where a sentence ends or the speaker pauses for more than two seconds — which reads far better than one line per cue. You can also keep one line per cue, or put a timestamp at the start of each line when you need to find a moment in the video. Word count and reading time come with it.
