What you get

Knows who's speaking

Diarization separates who said what, so interviews and panels read clearly, not as one wall of text.

Timestamps that jump

Every line is timestamped and clickable, so you can jump straight to the exact moment in the video.

Export anywhere

Download SRT and VTT for subtitles, or TXT for notes, docs, and articles. Copy any single line too.

Frequently asked

How accurate is the transcript?

Snatch uses a state-of-the-art speech-to-text model with punctuation, casing, and speaker labels, and falls back to the video's own captions when they exist.

Does the video need captions?

No. Snatch transcribes the audio directly, so it works even when a video has no captions at all.

Which languages are supported?

Language is detected automatically across dozens of languages, and the transcript is produced in the spoken language.

Can I download subtitles?

Yes. Every transcript exports as SRT or VTT for subtitles, or as TXT for plain text.
