Auto-caption German videos

Sonix uses cutting-edge transcription algorithms to caption your German videos in minutes. Our servers can auto-caption a one-hour German video in under 5 minutes. You can then edit and fine-tune using our powerful subtitle editor.

Sonix exports German captions in two industry-standard formats: SubRip (.srt) and WebVTT (.vtt). Both formats are compatible with YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook, and virtually all video platforms and players.
