Turn Irish audio
σε subtitles you trust.

A different approach to Irish subtitles.

Irish subtitles are text overlays that carry the words spoken in Irish audio or video into a format a viewer can read, whether they are fluent, learning the language, or simply following along without sound. Subtitles are different from captions, which also describe non-verbal audio. Irish is one of the six official languages of the European Union and the official language of the Republic of Ireland, spoken by roughly 1.8 million people across Ireland, Northern Ireland, and diaspora communities abroad, which is exactly why demand for accurate subtitles keeps growing.

Why manual Irish subtitling breaks down

Most teams still subtitle Irish content by hand: an editor replays a recording in short bursts, types out lines, times them against the waveform, and checks a second pass for accuracy. It works for a five-minute clip. It falls apart across a season of episodes, a full course of lectures, or a library of interviews, and few teams have a fluent Irish-speaking editor sitting free to do it.

How Speak AI reads Irish audio

Speak AI transcribes Irish audio directly, then reads three layers at once: the words themselves, the tone and energy of the speaker’s voice, and the pacing and emphasis that carry meaning a plain transcript misses. The result lands as a searchable transcript plus subtitle-ready segments, timed automatically and editable line by line, so a fluent reviewer spends minutes tightening wording instead of hours typing from scratch.

From upload to a published subtitle file

Getting to a finished Irish subtitle file is a short, repeatable path:

• Upload an Irish MP3, MP4, WAV, or MOV file, or paste a public URL, including a full YouTube link.
• Select Irish from the language dropdown and let Speak AI transcribe and time the subtitles automatically.
• Edit speaker names, tighten wording, and fix any line in the built-in subtitle editor.
• Export to SRT or VTT, or share an interactive media player instead of a flat file.

What accurate Irish subtitles are worth

Accurate Irish subtitles do more than satisfy an accessibility checklist. They make interviews, lectures, focus groups, and broadcast footage searchable, they help Irish-language content get indexed in a language search engines still under-serve, and they let a Gaeilge-speaking audience follow along without a producer writing the file by hand. Once a season of episodes or a year of interviews is subtitled, trend-over-time dashboards you can customize and white-label turn a folder of files into a report. One legal intelligence firm ran this same transcription and structured-extraction engine across large volumes of multilingual case recordings; the underlying platform work is documented in the large-scale comparative analysis, where it processed 5,100+ hours of recordings and saved $700K. And because Irish subtitles rarely stand alone, the same knowledge base is queryable from Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini through the MCP server, so a producer can ask across a full season of Irish recordings instead of searching one file at a time.
