Exporting and publishing

How do I export captions or subtitles?

Captions come from your edited transcript and download as SRT, VTT or plain text — so the words you cut do not come back in the subtitles.

Where
Export page, and the transcript toolbar in the Voice Editor.

That the captions match the edited audio sounds obvious, and it is exactly what breaks when transcription and editing live in different tools: you cut a sentence, and it is still sitting in the SRT you uploaded to YouTube.

Cast is audio-first by design — there is no video timeline to fight — so captions ship as sidecar files that match the edited audio exactly, and you upload them alongside the episode.
