Guide
AI jobs
Generate subtitles from audio, text, or images and understand job progress.
Overview
What AI jobs create
Audio transcription
AI jobs turn detected speech into subtitle text that can be reviewed against the source.
Draft subtitle tracks
Completed jobs create editable tracks rather than finished delivery files.
Editor-ready output
Generated tracks are ready for timing, language, and text review in the editor.
Preflight
Check these details before starting a job
- Source media selected
Choose the exact media file that should produce the generated subtitle track.
- Audio or visual source exists
Confirm the file has usable speech audio or visible subtitle content for AI to process.
- Source language reviewed
Check the language before launch because it affects recognition quality and retry decisions.
- Estimate and credits checked
Review duration and credit expectations before starting longer or repeated jobs.
- Review path understood
Plan to open the generated track in the editor before exporting or publishing.
Lifecycle
Follow each job from queue to generated track
- Track queue state
Use the status to see whether a job is waiting, running, complete, or blocked.
- Check settings early
Language, source media, and estimate details affect the usefulness of generated output.
- Treat output as a draft
Generated subtitles should be reviewed before export or publication.
Decision table
If a job shows this status, do this
| Status or result | Next step |
|---|---|
| Queued | Wait for processing capacity or return later to check progress. |
| Running | Monitor progress without changing the source file or job settings. |
| Complete | Open the generated track in the editor and start review. |
| Needs attention | Check source media, language, and job settings before retrying. |
| Poor output or wrong language | Adjust language or settings, rerun when useful, or review manually in the editor. |
Common guides
Important AI job tasks
Create a job
Start from prepared media and choose the source language carefully.
Monitor progress
Watch status changes so you know when output is ready or needs attention.
Retry carefully
Fix media readiness or settings before rerunning a failed job.
Review the result
Use the editor to correct text, timing, and language labels.
Review
Check generated subtitles before export
Scan for skipped sections, silent gaps, or speech that was not captured.
Compare captions against playback and fix cues that appear too early or late.
Review proper nouns, repeated terms, punctuation, casing, and line breaks.
Make sure the generated track uses the expected language before export.
Treat AI output as a draft until it has been checked in the editor.
