Translate hardcoded subtitles in one AI-powered workflow
LumoCut is an AI subtitle translator for hardcoded (burned-in) subtitles already embedded in your video. It removes the original subtitles, translates their text, and exports a new video with translated subtitles built in.
Hardcoded subtitle removal
OCR (optical character recognition) reads the main subtitle text directly from your video, so no separate subtitle file such as SRT is needed. LumoCut removes the original subtitles and restores the background beneath them to blend as naturally as possible with the surrounding scene.
Subtitle translation
Translate the subtitle text extracted from your video into the language you choose. Translation is available in 78 target languages.
New video with translated subtitles
LumoCut embeds the translated subtitles into the video and exports a new video file. The translated subtitles replace the originals, giving you a video that is ready to download and share.
How to translate hardcoded subtitles
Upload your video
Upload your original video with hardcoded subtitles. Videos with one clear set of subtitles in a consistent area work best.
Choose language and audio options
Choose from 50 source languages and 78 target languages.
Keep the original dialogue and music. Remove audio for silent product listings, or to add music later in TikTok or YouTube.
Export your video

Product videos
When product features and instructions appear as subtitles in a consistent area, LumoCut translates and replaces those subtitles. Use the same product demonstration for listings and ads, with explanations in your customers’ language.
Movie & drama shorts
Movie and drama scenes with dialogue subtitles in a consistent area are well suited to LumoCut’s subtitle removal and translation. It translates the conversational dialogue shown in those subtitles and replaces the originals, creating a new subtitled version of the same scene.
