Word-level SRT
SRT with per-word timing, not per-line guesswork.
Word-level SRT gives editors tighter control over caption timing for short-form video. Available on Headroom Editor and Studio plans.
The retention layer for short-form content. No card needed to start.
word-level srt
timed to the moment
The right word at the right moment.
Standard SRT timestamps full lines. Word-level SRT carries timing per word, which is what most short-form caption looks actually need.
- Per-word caption timing in SRT
- Tighter sync for short-form video
- Use in Premiere, CapCut, DaVinci
- Available on Editor and Studio plans
Problem
Line-level SRT is too coarse for short-form.
Modern short-form caption looks emphasize specific words. Line-level SRT cannot land that emphasis without manual splitting.
Line timing misses emphasis
A whole line in, a whole line out is too blunt for short-form.
Manual splitting wastes time
Editors often re-cut SRT files into word-sized chunks by hand.
Inconsistent feel across clips
Without per-word timing, captions can feel out of sync with the speaker.
