VEED alternative
A VEED alternative made for subtitles in Indian languages.
VEED is a full browser-based video editor and, unusually, it already shows prices in rupees to visitors from India. Subtitles are one feature among many, which shows in the free plan: 10 minutes of auto subtitles a month, exports at 720p with a watermark, and no way to download a subtitle file.
If your whole job is subtitles, Captionwale is designed for it: word-level timing, Indian scripts drawn correctly, Hinglish in Latin letters, and subtitle files on a cheaper plan.
