Bring your captions
Open or paste existing SRT and VTT. Add a local video if you want to check the timing by eye.
LESS FRICTION. BETTER CAPTIONS.
Fix the offset. Untangle overlaps. Give your words room to breathe. A focused subtitle workbench, right in your browser.
YOUR EDITING DESK
Preview a local clip without uploading it.
Browser-supported codecs only. Video is read through a local object URL, never loaded into this app’s JS memory. Caption overlay is in-page only, not fullscreen or picture-in-picture. Test reel: original, silent, 640 × 360 MP4.
Select a cue to edit or seek. Exports are chronological with sequential SRT numbering. Multiple active captions are stacked in the preview.
A SMALLER, CALMER WORKFLOW
Open or paste existing SRT and VTT. Add a local video if you want to check the timing by eye.
Review overlaps, fast lines and timing errors. Shift every cue or correct a gradual drift.
Review changes, undo freely, and export clean captions. Keep a JSON backup to return later.
FILES STAY WITH YOU
No cloud file uploads, no account and no external fonts or scripts. Caption processing happens in your browser. The hosting service still receives ordinary page/asset requests.
Projects live in memory by default and disappear when the tab closes. Saving on this device is optional, unencrypted, and visible to anyone using this browser profile. Never rely on browser storage as your only copy.
Saves captions and settings in localStorage. Does not save video files. Enabling this replaces any saved project here.
Automatic saving is off.
Cueforge edits existing subtitles. It does not transcribe, translate, encode video or burn in captions. SRT/VTT export is free here; free subtitle tools also exist elsewhere. This is not a full video editor or a replacement for every paid editing feature.
Modern browsers with JavaScript, File/Blob APIs and native video playback are required. Codec support varies by browser and device. Downloads may open a share/save sheet on mobile. UTF-8 only; one project at a time; 2 MiB text, 4 MiB backups, 5,000 cues, local video preview up to 2 GiB. The mini timeline displays the first 500 cues. Undo retains up to 30 changes within an 8 MiB budget per undo/redo stack.
