Clean SRT subtitle files by removing timecodes, sequence numbers, HTML formatting tags, and duplicate lines. Output plain readable text or a stripped SRT file.
SRT (SubRip Subtitle) is the most common subtitle format. It's supported by YouTube, VLC, most video editors, and virtually every streaming platform. Each block in an SRT file contains three things: a sequence number, a timecode line, and the subtitle text.
When you copy or export an SRT file and want to use the text content elsewhere โ say, to summarize a video or feed it to an AI tool โ you're left with a wall of numbers, arrows, timestamps in milliseconds, and sometimes HTML formatting tags that make the text impossible to read directly.
This tool strips all of that out and gives you clean text. It also handles a common quirk of SRT files: duplicate subtitle blocks where the same sentence appears across multiple timecode entries because it remained on screen while the timing changed.
