Subtitling Services
Boost your visual content.
The need for subtitling services
A video that only works in one language reaches a fraction of its potential audience, and one with confusing or absent subtitles loses viewers within seconds. Subtitling exists to solve both problems, making your content watchable, accessible, and understood everywhere it’s seen.
Videos have proven to be an incredibly effective means of connecting with audiences, particularly on social media. Across various platforms , the popularity of short-form video content has surged, making it a highly impactful tool for communication.
Subtitling enhances video content
Incorporating audio-visual elements into your communication strategy can help you inform, entertain and achieve your specific goals. However, it’s important to ensure that your video content is easy to understand. This is where subtitling plays a vital role by providing clarity on names, terminology and enhancing the overall viewing experience.
How Attached helps you
We don’t just add text to the bottom of your video. We build subtitles that respect how people actually watch and read, so your message lands the way it was intended, in every language.
Here’s what that looks like in practice:
- Reading-speed calibration means every subtitle is timed and paced so viewers can comfortably read and watch at the same time, without missing key visuals.
- Accurate spotting and time-cuing means subtitles appear and disappear in sync with the audio, so nothing feels delayed or rushed.
- Sector-matched linguists mean subtitlers are matched to your content type, whether that’s marketing, corporate, or entertainment, so tone and terminology stay on point.
- Screen-space-aware formatting means line length and positioning are handled with an eye for on-screen readability, not just translation accuracy.
And a single point of contact, your Attached project manager, keeps your subtitling project on track from first upload to final delivery.

Questions & Answers
What is the difference between subtitles and captions?
Subtitles are typically translations of spoken dialogue into another language, aimed at viewers who don’t understand the original audio. Captions usually stay in the same language as the audio and often include additional information, such as sound effects or speaker identification, aimed at viewers who are deaf or hard of hearing, or watching without sound. We can advise on which one, or both, your content needs.
Why should I add subtitles to my videos?
Subtitles make video content easier to understand and more accessible to a wider audience.
They can help increase viewer engagement, improve comprehension, support accessibility requirements, and make it possible to reach audiences in multiple languages and markets with the same content.
Can you translate subtitles into multiple languages?
Yes. We regularly manage subtitling projects across many languages simultaneously, keeping terminology, tone, and timing consistent across every version so your content feels equally polished in each market.
How do you make sure subtitles are easy to read while watching?
Our subtitlers work within established reading-speed and character-limit guidelines, so viewers can comfortably read the text without missing what’s happening on screen. Timing, or spotting, is carefully matched to the audio and visual pacing of your video.
What file formats do you deliver subtitles in?
We can deliver subtitles in the most common formats used by video platforms and editing software, including SRT and VTT, as well as burned-in, or hardcoded, subtitles if preferred. Let us know your platform or software and we’ll confirm the best format for your workflow.
How long does subtitling take?
Timelines depend on video length, the number of target languages, and complexity, such as technical terminology or multiple speakers. Once we receive your video and confirm requirements, we provide a realistic delivery estimate.
