Transcribes a video into subtitles and lets you fix every word by hand

Caption and translate a video with other people, subtitle by subtitle.
A subtitling workspace built for volunteer translation: type captions against the waveform, set the timings from the keyboard, then hand the finished set to someone else to translate into another language. NGOs and universities use it for exactly that. It exports to SRT, VTT and DFXP, so the result is portable.
AltFTool does this too

Free to use, but you have to register before it will do the job. On the free public workspace everything you caption is visible to anyone — private teams are a paid plan.
Yes. Amara sends your input to its own servers to process it. That is fine for public material; for anything containing personal data, use one of the on-device tools instead.
