  Faq

  • Who should use EchoSubs, and for which workflows? — EchoSubs is best for small teams and creators who need to turn existing videos into clean, re-captionable, or localised versions without uploading footage. Typical workflows: localisation teams removing burned-in subtitles before adding new-language captions; agencies and in-house teams processing NDA-protected client video; course creators batch-cleaning dozens of lessons; and educators converting PPT/PDF slide decks into narrated MP4 lessons.
  • Is EchoSubs secure? Where are my videos processed? — EchoSubs runs 100% offline on your local machine — videos are never uploaded to any server, including ours. There is no cloud processing mode, even as an opt-in. The app uses the internet only to validate your licence; subtitle detection, AI inpainting, transcription, and TTS all execute on your CPU/GPU. This makes EchoSubs safe for NDA-protected, client-confidential, and regulated workflows where cloud SaaS is not an option.
  • How much does EchoSubs cost? — EchoSubs has three buying options: Pro at $5.99/month (monthly subscription), Biz at $79/month (team subscription), and a one-time Lifetime licence at $69 (no subscription, includes lifetime updates). A free trial is available with watermarked output for subtitle generation; subtitle removal and PPT/PDF-to-video require a paid licence.
  • Can I migrate from Veed.io, CapCut, or other subtitle tools? — There is no project file to migrate — EchoSubs works directly on your source video files. Drop your original MP4/MKV/MOV/AVI/WebM/FLV into the app and it processes them with the same AI workflow regardless of which tool you previously used. SRT or VTT caption files you already have can be loaded as a starting point for translation or as a reference for inpainting masks.
  • What integrations, platforms, and file formats are supported? — EchoSubs works with MP4, MKV, MOV, AVI, WebM, and FLV video, SRT and VTT subtitle files, and PPT/PDF presentations, on macOS 12+ and Windows 10+ with Apple Silicon or NVIDIA GPU acceleration (CPU fallback supported). It does not currently support a REST API, a command-line interface, Zapier, webhooks, Linux, browser or mobile use, or editing-suite plugins.
  • How long does onboarding take, and what do I need to get started? — Setup takes about five minutes; it requires a macOS 12+ or Windows 10+ computer and a video file, and no account is needed for the trial. The first result is a cleaned video saved next to the original. Step one: download the installer (~60 seconds). Step two: drag your video file into the app (~30 seconds). Step three: accept the AI-suggested detection parameters or tweak them (~5 seconds).
  • Is there a free trial, and what are the limits? — Yes. The subtitle generation feature runs in trial mode without a licence — the output carries a small watermark, useful for evaluating accuracy and language coverage before purchase. Subtitle removal and PPT/PDF-to-video features require a paid licence to run end-to-end. There is no time limit on the trial; you can keep evaluating the watermarked workflow as long as you want.
  • Does EchoSubs work fully offline, or does it need an internet connection? — EchoSubs works fully offline once you have activated your licence. After the one-time online activation step, you can disconnect from the internet entirely and continue processing videos indefinitely — the AI inpainting models, transcription models, and TTS voices are all bundled with the app and run on your local hardware. Periodic licence re-validation happens silently in the background when the internet is available, but never blocks active processing.
  • What hardware do I need to run EchoSubs at reasonable speed? — EchoSubs runs on any macOS 12+ or Windows 10+ machine, but speed is GPU-bound. On Apple M1/M2/M3 or an NVIDIA RTX 3060-class or better GPU, a 5-minute 1080p video processes in about 2 to 3 minutes. CPU-only machines work too, but are 3 to 4 times slower for the AI inpainting step. There is no minimum RAM requirement beyond what the OS itself needs — the app streams frames rather than loading the whole video into memory.

  Not for

  • One-off subtitle removal where a free online tool is sufficient
  • Workflows that need a real-time cloud API — EchoSubs is a desktop app, not a SaaS endpoint
  • Live transcription — EchoSubs is built for post-production

  Onboarding

  • ↓ Download EchoSubs AI.
  • You need to clean up one or two short videos a year, the content isn't sensitive, and you'd rather not install desktop software.
  • Here EchoSubs loses on convenience — it needs a ~5-minute install and a licence, while Veed.io and CapCut run free in a browser and add a timeline editor, transitions, and social templates EchoSubs deliberately doesn't.
