Short answer

How can I automate video subtitling with my AI?

Give your agent a video URL, and it will fetch the media, transcribe the speech, and generate a subtitle file. You'll get a ready-to-use file without manual typing. You'll receive the following outputs.

The results you get

What your agent delivers

The AI handles the technical steps to produce these files.

TEXT

Full transcriptions

The AI converts spoken words into written text. You get a complete record of everything said in the video.

FILES

Subtitle files

The agent generates a subtitle file. You can download this to sync text with your video footage.

DATA

Media details

The AI checks the video properties. You'll know the file size and duration before you start processing.

HUMAN

Manual review

The AI provides the raw text and files. You still need to check for specific names or technical jargon.

The workflow

What your AI does when the URL arrives.

Your agent uses Maestra's tools to move from a link to a finished subtitle file.

  1. Fetch media

    The agent takes the URL you provided and pulls the media into the transcription engine.

    upload_media_for_transcription

  2. Verify file

    The AI looks at the media to confirm the length and properties of the video.

    get_file_details

  3. Process audio

    The engine processes the audio track to create a text version of the speech.

    upload_media_for_transcription

  4. Export results
