Export Formats: TXT, SRT, and VTT

Choose the right export format for your workflow. Here’s when to use TXT, SRT, and VTT in Transcript In Progress.

TXT — Simple and Flexible

• Plain text, no timestamps.
• Best for reading, summarizing, or editing in documents.
• Ideal for note-taking and content analysis.

SRT — Video Editing Standard

• Includes numbered blocks with start/end times.
• Works with popular editors and platforms (Premiere, Final Cut, etc.).
• Use when you need captions in post-production.

VTT — Web Captions

• WebVTT format optimized for browsers and HTML5 players.
• Supports styling and metadata beyond basic timing.
• Use for websites, embedded players, or streaming apps.

Clean Exports

• We denoise text lightly to improve readability.
• File generation happens locally in your browser.
• Name files consistently (e.g., title.en.srt).

If you aren’t sure, start with TXT for quick review, then export SRT or VTT when you begin editing or publishing.
