Adobe Speech to Text v2.2.5 for Premiere Pro 2026 – Automatic Transcription and Captioning Too

Adobe Speech to Text for Premiere Pro Overview

Using the Adobe Speech to Text add-on in Premiere Pro, you can automatically generate transcripts of the dialogues heard in the video and add captions to the video to enhance it accessibility and audience involvement.

Once your video editing is complete, use Adobe Speech to Text to create a transcription of your footage. Add pace-matched captions to your timeline using Adobe Sensei’s machine learning capabilities. Style and position video captions using the editing tools in the Essential Graphics panel.

FAQ

Question: I can’t click the “Continue” button because the window contents don’t fit within the window itself, and the button is out of sight. What should I do?
Answer: This happens occasionally on poorly configured operating systems. There’s a TAB key on your keyboard. Use it to navigate to the desired menu item.
Question: The installation was not completed due to an unknown error. What should I do?
Answer: Please review the error code explanation . I also recommend reviewing the installation log. It is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\Install.log. You may find more detailed information about the problem and how to resolve it there.
Question: What does the language selection in the installation settings affect?
​​Answer: Premiere Pro is installed multilingual by default, meaning it includes more than just the language pack you’re currently using. The language selection you make when installing Speech to Text will affect the interface language of Premiere Pro after the installation. So, if you don’t want the interface language of your existing Premiere Pro to change after installing Speech to Text, select your preferred language from the list.
Question: Why did you have to exclude the Speech to Text modules from the Premiere Pro 2026 distribution?
Answer: They’re huge. Each one is 800 MB! Plus, they’re all installed en masse. Do you really need them all?! Do you need a Premiere Pro distribution that weighs over 15 GB when you’ll never use most of that considerable weight? I don’t think it’s worth it. That’s why I’ve moved the Speech to Text modules into a separate build and significantly improved their installation modules so they can be installed individually according to your preferences, rather than all at once.
Question: How did you integrate this build with Media Encoder 2026?
Answer: Starting with version 2026, Media Encoder, following Premiere Pro, learned to create subtitles. But Adobe wouldn’t be Adobe if they didn’t screw up in the most basic way… The Speech to Text packages for Premiere Pro and Media Encoder are absolutely identical. But for some reason, these two programs look for them in different folders! That is, if you want to use Speech to Text technology in both programs, the original Creative Cloud Desktop installer will place two identical copies of the packages on your computer—one for each program. It’s completely unclear why both programs couldn’t be forced to look for Speech to Text in a common folder, as is done, for example, with the Camera Raw package. Correcting this oversight wasn’t particularly difficult. I simply created a symbolic link redirecting from the Media Encoder path to the actual path of the Premiere Pro packages.
