The classic karaoke subtitle format: styled, word-timed .ass files.
Free to use. Works with MP3 uploads, AI-generated tracks, and supported song links.
The .ass (Advanced SubStation) format is the gold standard for karaoke video subtitles — it supports fonts, colors, positioning, and the classic per-word karaoke fill effect. Karaoke.io writes .ass files with word-level timing generated from your actual track, ready for karaoke video renders, Aegisub fine-tuning, or direct playback in players that support ASS.
Karaoke video producers, anime-style subtitle workflows, Aegisub, and media players like VLC and mpv. It is the format behind word-fill karaoke effects.
Yes — word timestamps come from AI speech recognition against your actual vocal, so the karaoke fill lands on the beat without manual timing.
The generated file uses clean default styling that you can restyle freely in Aegisub or any ASS-aware editor - fonts, colors, and effects are all editable text.
The same song can become a complete AI music video — storyboarded scenes, consistent characters, synced lyrics on screen, final MP4 — on AIMusicVideo.com.
