Frequently asked questions about Checksub
How does the free trial work?
You access free credits that allow you to translate 1 hour of video. You can test every Checksub feature as long as you have remaining credits, including subtitles, translation, and AI dubbing.
How does the video translation work?
Checksub first transcribes the audio and translates the transcription. Then, when the translation is done, it generates a realistic, natural, and sync-in replica of all the speaking voices while keeping the original audio background.
How long does it take to get my translation ready?
If you choose the automatic generator, you will immediately get pre-generated subtitles. Then you can take your time to edit them to make them perfect.
Why do I have to create subtitles from the audio first?
It is always necessary to create captions in the original language of an audio before generating an automatic translation. Going straight to translation would produce lower quality results. The platform must generate captions in the original language first, and credits are debited for each language created.
Is the translation of good quality?
For the last 6 years, thanks to Checksub's knowledge in subtitling and audiovisual translation, the platform has been designed to generate the best translation, subtitling, and dubbing automatically. The machine translation workflow handles subtitling specifics to offer premium translation from the start.
How does the credit system work?
For subtitles: 1 minute of credits for 1 minute of video. For dubbing: 3 minutes of credits for 1 minute of dubbing generated. For lip-sync: 5 minutes of credits for 1 minute of video. If you translate a one-minute video into 3 languages, you use 4 minutes of credits (1 for transcription, 3 for translations).
Can I get just the .SRT file?
You can download the subtitle file (SRT, VTT, TXT) of your project with all paid plans. This option is not available with the free plan.
Can I stop my subscription whenever I want?
Yes, you can stop your subscription at any time from your dashboard (my.checksub.com/subscriptions). Your subscription will stop at the end of the active period with no more payments. For monthly, it ends at the end of the 30-day period; for annual, it ends at the end of the year.
Can I change my plan later?
Yes, you can change your plan later. Checksub's pricing scales with your company. You can chat with their team to find a solution that works for you.
How long does it take to get my subtitles?
If you choose the automatic generator, you will get pre-generated subtitles in a few minutes, depending on the duration and size of your video.
