QUICK ANSWER
Every plan follows the same three steps: upload a local video, wait for the transcript, then export. What changes between plans is the file size limit, how many minutes you get, and which export formats and extras are unlocked.

The three steps, identical on every plan
Upload a file from your device. Nothing is fetched from a link, and nothing is downloaded from a platform.
Wait for the transcript. Chinese lines appear with pinyin and, if you chose it, English. This is where the tool does its work.
Export. SRT for compatibility, ASS when the pinyin needs to sit above each character, TXT when you only want text.
