Guide: how to use Subtitle Formatter

Auto-generated captions are usually 90% accurate and 100% unformatted: no punctuation, wrong keyword spellings, lines that break mid-phrase. That matters more than it seems — captions are indexed for search, read by a large share of mobile viewers, and required for accessibility. The Subtitle Formatter cleans and structures a caption file, enriches key moments with the correct keyword spellings, scores readability, checks accessibility compliance, and exports a translation-ready version.
