Why choose an offline subtitle generator?
Some creators prefer desktop tools that work directly from their own computer instead of relying on online services. A local subtitle generator can fit better into private workflows, batch-processing workflows, and editing setups where keeping files on the PC is important.
Polley Word by Word SRT is built for that kind of workflow. It runs on Windows, processes media locally, and generates word-level .srt subtitle files for later import into editing software.

Choose one or more audio or video files from your computer.
Step 2
Click Transcribe & Download in the app.
Step 3
The subtitle generation runs locally on your Windows PC.
Step 4

Keep the app open during processing, and do not delete files from
the uploads folder until the transcription job is complete.
