Captions are rare on Reddit and the sound is usually the whole point, so a Reddit video transcript fills a real gap. Paste a post link and read the clip as text, timings included so you can follow along. Free Reddit video to text, convert a Reddit clip to transcript or read the captions.
Any language is detected automatically, pick one for noisy or mixed language audio.

How to transcribe a Reddit video
Use Share and Copy link on the post itself rather than the comment you are reading. Short redd.it links work too. Paste it above and press Get transcript.
Reddit stores video and audio as separate files, so a clip that looks silent elsewhere still reads correctly here.
Posts, crossposts and comments
Standard v.redd.it posts and crossposts both resolve. Videos in private subreddits, quarantined communities and removed posts do not.
If the post is gone, save the file first and use the upload tool, which works entirely from your device.
What it is good for
Quoting a clip in a comment, keeping the words of a post that may be deleted, writing captions for a repost, or simply reading a video in a quiet room.
Questions people ask
Does the transcript include the audio track?
Yes. Reddit keeps video and audio separate, and the audio is what gets read, so nothing is lost.
Can I transcribe a video from a private subreddit?
No. Only publicly reachable posts can be read. Download the file yourself and use the upload tool instead.
Which formats can I save?
TXT, SRT and VTT, and the subtitle formats keep a timing on each line.
Do you keep the video?
No. It is read once to produce the text and nothing is written to our storage.
