Claude Caption Formatter Pro
Convert, validate, and generate captions with timing precision and accessibility
What You Can Do
You can generate captions from transcripts or scripts, convert between subtitle formats (SRT, VTT, ASS, SBV), validate timing synchronization and accessibility compliance, and batch-process multiple caption files. Claude ensures proper formatting, correct timing intervals, and WCAG accessibility standards so your captions are broadcast-ready and compliant.
Features
Convert between SRT, VTT, ASS, SUB, SBV, and more. Claude preserves timing, styles, and speaker information during conversion.
Check for overlapping captions, timing gaps, and duration accuracy. Claude identifies sync issues and suggests corrections with precision to milliseconds.
Verify WCAG 2.1 standards including caption duration, reading speed, color contrast, and caption placement. Get a compliance score and actionable improvements.
Generate captions from transcripts, scripts, or raw audio descriptions. Claude infers natural timing breakpoints and speaker labels automatically.
Process multiple caption files at once using consistent rules. Apply format conversion, validation, or accessibility improvements across your entire project.
Check spelling, grammar, readability, and consistency across all captions. Identify redundancies and suggest stylistic improvements for clarity.
Maintain speaker names, color codes, font styles, and positioning data when converting formats. Custom styles are preserved end-to-end.
