The Closed Caption Converter API eliminates the complexity of handling multiple subtitle formats in your workflow. Whether you're building a media platform, automating broadcast operations, or developing caption tools, our API handles the heavy lifting. Convert between industry-standard formats like SCC, MCC, and EBU-STL, correct timing drift, segment files for delivery, and decode caption data—all through simple REST calls. No need to build and maintain your own conversion libraries or worry about format specifications. Just send us your files and get back exactly what you need, when you need it.
Closed Caption Converter transformed our video production workflow. We process hundreds of hours of poker content every month, and manually handling captions was becoming a major bottleneck. Iconik automatically sends files to the API for transcription and caption sync, then delivers the completed files right back into our workflow. What used to take our team 3-4 hours of manual work per video now happens automatically in the background.
