Subtitles are no longer optional
Most social video is watched without sound, and accessibility rules increasingly require subtitles. Manual subtitling easily takes four times the length of your video. Murmel does it automatically: upload the mp4 and the transcript is ready in the editor, timecodes included.
Three ways to export
- Video with burned-in subtitles. Download your video back with the subtitles rendered in: ready for LinkedIn, Instagram or YouTube.
- SRT or VTT file. Working in a video editor or uploading to a platform with its own subtitle rendering? Export the separate subtitle file.
- Individual clips. Select a piece of transcript and export just that fragment as a subtitled video: the fastest way to cut webinar or interview quotes for social.
Dutch speech, understood properly
Automatic subtitles from the big platforms are notorious for mangled Dutch. Murmel uses a model trained specifically for Dutch speech, and in the editor you fix the last details with the video right next to the text. Add names and jargon to your vocabulary so they are correct in every video.
What does it cost?
Your video's minutes count as audio minutes: prepaid credits cost €1 per 50 minutes (excl. VAT), from €5. Subtitling videos regularly works with a subscription from €9 per month (excl. VAT), with a 14-day trial for €0.01 first.
Frequently asked questions
Do I get the subtitles in the video or as a separate file?
Both. Export the video with burned-in subtitles, or a separate SRT or VTT file for your video editor or platform.
Can I export a single clip from a long video?
Yes. Select a piece of text in the transcript and export just that fragment as a subtitled video, useful for social media quotes.
How good are the Dutch subtitles?
Murmel uses a model trained specifically for Dutch speech that makes fewer errors than open-source alternatives in a public benchmark. The editor then lets you review everything with the video next to the text.
Which video formats work?
Common formats such as mp4 work directly. Long videos of several hours are no problem either.
