What is a VTT file?
WebVTT files carry a WEBVTT header and can include NOTE, STYLE and REGION blocks that aren't part of the actual dialogue. Converting to Markdown removes that overhead and leaves a clean, shareable document. This is particularly useful for captions pulled from web platforms, course sites or auto-captioning tools, where the raw .vtt file often carries more metadata than an SRT file would.

- Yes, multi-line captions are preserved with proper Markdown line breaks.
- Is this tool private?
