Frequently asked

What is word-level caption timing?+

Each transcribed word receives its own start and end time. That lets the editor highlight or reveal words in sync with speech.

Does word-level timing guarantee a perfect transcript?+

No automatic transcript is perfect. Clear audio improves accuracy, and the editor lets you correct names, specialist terms, and punctuation before export.

Can I use the timing for SRT?+

Yes. SoCaptions groups the reviewed words into readable subtitle cues when it creates an SRT file.
