How It Works
Drop the English audio or video you want translated.
The speech is transcribed with timings, then every line is translated into Tamil, keeping the timings.
Download the SRT or VTT, or copy the text — the original-language file comes with it.
The Translate English Audio to Tamil is a free online tool from ShortsHero: english recordings as Tamil text. The speech is transcribed by AssemblyAI, then every line is translated with its timings kept — usually under a minute for a 5-minute file. It is free for files up to 1 hour; longer recordings need a paid plan.
English is in AssemblyAI's moderate-accuracy tier, with a typical word error rate of 25–50% on clear speech.
Free transcription covers files up to 1 hour. If your recording is longer, a paid plan lifts the limit — or trim it into parts and run each one.

Yes. The speech is transcribed into timed lines first, and each line is translated on its own, so the Tamil subtitles appear exactly when the words are spoken.
Usually well under the length of the recording — a 10-minute file is typically done in about a minute.
