Indonesian Subtitle Generator

• An Indonesian subtitle generator with word-level timing

  Speech recognition transcribes your audio and stamps every word with its own start and end time. That is what makes word-by-word karaoke captions possible, where the active word fills with color as it is spoken. Highlight styles like hormozi and Beast Mode sit among the 176 presets shared with the caption generator.

• Cue editing built for slang and shortened words

  Spoken Indonesian rarely matches textbook spelling. The AI may write tidak where you said nggak, gak or enggak, and Jakarta slang like gue, lo and banget deserves a check too. Click any cue to correct the text, adjust its timing, or split a long sentence across two lines.

• Translate between Indonesian and 85 other languages

  The subtitle translator, a Pro feature, covers 86 languages in total. Turn an English video into an Indonesian-subtitled version for local audiences, or translate your Indonesian captions into English before posting internationally. Translation changes the subtitle text only, the original voices stay untouched.

• Dual Indonesian and English captions

  Show two languages at once with bilingual subtitles: the original line on top and its translation underneath. Language learners, diaspora viewers and mixed Indonesian-English channels get both without juggling separate files.

• 176 caption styles that render Indonesian cleanly

  Bahasa Indonesia uses the plain Latin alphabet with no accents, so every font in the picker and all 176 presets display it correctly, including custom brand fonts you upload. Long affixed words like mempertanggungjawabkan and hyphenated pairs like jalan-jalan fit fine because you control the line breaks in each cue.

• Burn captions in free, or get SRT, VTT, TXT and JSON on paid plans

  Hardcode the subtitles into the video for free so they show everywhere, or download a subtitle file on a paid plan to upload alongside your video on YouTube. You can also import an existing SRT or VTT file, fix it on the timeline, and restyle it with any preset. The add subtitles page walks through that route in more depth.

• Cut the video from its transcript

  The transcript doubles as an editing surface. Delete a sentence and the matching video disappears, and automatic silence removal trims dead air between takes. Indonesian fillers like eee and anu take one click each to cut.

• Ask Echo to do the styling

  Echo, the AI assistant inside the editor, works from plain instructions like add Indonesian captions in the kendrick style and make the active word yellow. It has 39 editing tools, sets a checkpoint before big changes, and everything it does can be reverted in one click.

1. 1

   Upload your video

   Drag in a file in MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV or any of 20 accepted formats. EchoWave runs in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari.

2. 2

   Run auto subtitles

   Open the captions panel and hit generate. The AI listens to the audio, recognizes on its own that it is Indonesian, and returns cues with word-level timestamps. If it ever guesses wrong, a From language override lets you correct it after transcription.

3. 3

   Edit and style the cues

   Read through the transcript and fix names, brand terms and slang spellings, then pick a caption preset. Adjust font, size, position and per-word color until it matches your channel.

4. 4

   Export the video or download the SRT

   Render an MP4 with the captions burned in, or, on a paid plan, download SRT, VTT, TXT or JSON files. Free exports are HD 720p with a small removable EchoWave badge and a short end card; paid plans remove them and add 1080p and 4K.

• Short-form video for TikTok, Reels and Shorts

  Indonesia is one of TikTok's largest audiences on the planet, and much of that scrolling happens on mute. Burned-in karaoke captions keep viewers reading when the sound is off.

• Localizing English content for Indonesia

  Translate an English video's subtitles into Indonesian with Pro and reach a market of more than 270 million people without reshooting anything. The original audio stays in English while the captions carry the meaning.

• Going international from Indonesia

  With Pro, translate your Indonesian captions into English, Japanese or any of the 86 supported languages before posting abroad. Dual subtitles let you keep the original text on screen at the same time.

• Tutorials, courses and lectures

  Educators subtitle lessons and screen recordings so students can follow along and search the text later. The built-in screen recorder means you can capture, caption and export from one tab.

• Podcast clips and interviews

  Pull quotable moments out of long conversations by editing the transcript instead of scrubbing the timeline. Silence removal tightens the pauses before the captions go on.

• Business and product videos

  Save brand colors and upload company fonts to the brand kit so every caption matches your style guide. Export vertical, square and widescreen versions of the same video for different placements.
