In their own words
Editsub
EditSub is a web-based subtitle editor and management tool for changing subtitle text, adjusting timing, translating subtitles and converting formats. It works with SRT, VTT, SBV, SUB, ASS and SSA files, and exports SRT and VTT. Its AI translation supports more than 100 languages. Local audio or video files up to 10 minutes can be transcribed free without logging in; longer files and translation require credits. The AI co-pilot can flag reading-speed, timing, overlap, gap, line-length and transcription issues, and can fix or rewrite cues. Timing tools include frame-accurate adjustment, batch shifting, waveform synchronization and real-time preview. Video-to-subtitle accepts listed audio and video formats, with a maximum media size of 3072 MB; subtitle uploads are limited to 10 MB. The free plan includes 10 subtitle files. Pro is listed at $4 a year, billed $48 per year, with 1,500 credits per month.

Maestra is available through the web, an API, and an extension. Integrations include YouTube, TikTok Ads, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Slack, Zapier, OBS, vMix, and webhooks; several meeting and production integrations are listed for real-time transcription and translation. Monthly plans range from $12 a month for Pay As You Go to $79 a month for Premium, while one-time 60-credit subtitle and transcription options each cost $12 as a one-time purchase.
