Pricing questions
Is Desi Subtitles free to try?
Yes. Every new account gets 30 free audio minutes on signup. No card is required to start generating subtitles.
Why isn't this service free?
I'd genuinely love to keep Desi Subtitles free for everyone. But running accurate AI systems, compute infrastructure, databases, and maintaining a high-quality service comes with real costs. Your support helps keep the product running, improving, and accessible to more creators ❤️
What do audio minutes cover?
Audio minutes are billed by processed audio length in 30-second increments. Generation uses your wallet balance whether you export SRT, caption layers, or captioned video.
Can I buy more minutes later?
Yes. Buy audio-minute packs when you need more capacity. Larger packs lower the effective per-minute rate.
Do credits expire?
Purchased audio minutes stay in your wallet for future generations. Free signup minutes are granted once per account.
