AI subtitle generator: readable subtitles on faceless verticals

AI subtitle generator for faceless YouTube Shorts — auto subtitles timed to narration without a timeline. Honest ZeroEdit pricing — no free MP4s.

An AI subtitle generator creates timed text tracks or burn-in subtitles from speech. For faceless Shorts, subtitles should ship with the VO and B-roll — not as a separate SRT chore. ZeroEdit on zeroedit.ai does that in one pipeline. Not zeroedit.me.

Subtitles vs captions vs SRT downloads

  • Burn-in — baked into the MP4 for silent autoplay
  • SRT / VTT — separate files for YouTube upload
