Subtitles in · synced motion graphics out

Turn your SRT into motion graphics, already in sync.

A subtitle file already holds your words and the exact second each one is spoken. Ahacut reads it line by line, designs a scene for each, and renders one continuous track that lands on those timecodes. You never touch a keyframe.

What you put in

Any one of these
  • →.srt or .vtt subtitles from Premiere, Resolve, CapCut, Descript or YouTube
  • →A plain transcript or script (pasted)
  • →Audio or video, transcribed for you

What you get back

Rendered in the cloud, nothing to install
  • ✓One motion-graphics track cut to your subtitle timings
  • ✓Full-screen b-roll or a transparent overlay
  • ✓Landscape 16:9 by default, or vertical 9:16
  • ✓Per-scene clips you can re-render individually
How it works

Three steps, no keyframes

1

Drop in the .srt

Or paste a transcript, or upload the audio and let it be transcribed.

2

A scene per line

Each subtitle line is written into its own animated graphic: kinetic typography, a number, a chart, a comparison.

3

One track, on your timecodes

Render in the cloud and download. Lay it on the timeline and it lines up with your cut.

Why subtitles are the right input

Timing is the hard part of motion graphics. A designer spends most of an edit nudging animations to land on the word. A subtitle file solves that before you start: each line has a start and end time, so a graphic made for that line can be placed exactly. That's why Ahacut takes subtitles as its main input rather than a text prompt.

If you only have a transcript without timings, paste it and the scenes are paced for you. If you have the audio, upload it and you get both the transcript and the timings.

How this differs from captions or templates

Caption tools animate the words you say. Template packs give you a layout to fill in by hand. Ahacut reads what each line means and picks a visual for it: a line about growth becomes a rising chart, a line comparing two options becomes a side-by-side, a key phrase becomes kinetic type. The result is closer to what a motion designer would build from your script.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a tool that turns an SRT file into motion graphics automatically?
Yes, that is what Ahacut does. Upload an .srt (or .vtt), and each subtitle line becomes an animated scene placed at that line's timecode. You download one continuous track for your editor.
Can I use a transcript without timestamps?
Yes. Paste the transcript and the scenes are paced for you. For frame-accurate sync with an existing edit, an .srt exported from that edit works best.
Which editors can export the subtitle file?
Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut, CapCut, Descript and YouTube Studio all export .srt. You can also skip that and upload the audio.
What if one scene isn't right?
Full-screen tracks are rendered scene by scene, and you can re-render a single scene without redoing the whole video.
