In their own words
Gaupol
Gaupol is free subtitle-editing software for creating and translating text-based subtitles, timing them to video, and correcting common errors. It supports multiple subtitle formats and lists SRT and VTT export. A built-in video player is available, with an option to launch an external player. Gaupol is Free Software under the GNU General Public License, with a free plan priced at free. Linux is the current availability listed by the maker, with Flatpak, source code, and packages for most popular distributions. Windows installers are no longer built; the latest Windows version is 1.3.1 and its built-in player is disabled. The integrated player uses GStreamer, and additional plugins are recommended for broader container and codec support. Optional source dependencies cover spell-checking and character-encoding detection. Gaupol includes aeidon, a separately installable Python package for subtitle-file manipulation. Documentation, discussions, and an issue tracker provide support channels.
SRTGen

The service supports 100 caption languages and a workflow combining transcription, translation, voice dubbing, review and export. Its stated content range includes social videos, podcasts, courses, marketing videos and news. The free plan includes 20 signup credits, 20 transcription minutes and 40 translation minutes, with recording capped at five minutes and 720p.
