The following resources may be used as an alternative to Youtube for captioning:
Amara- Free captioning web-based webiste. When you submit a video, it creates a public page for that video on Amara. On this page anyone (including you) can create captions and translations for the video. Amara is primarily designed to be an open and public resource. However, there are Amara Enterprise teams (see link above) that can enable privacy.
Dotsub- Dotsub is a browser based, end-to-end video captioning and translation tool for web-based platforms or mobile devices. Dotsub also offers transcription and video editing features. The process works this way: users upload a video, then Dotsub will transcribe and time caption it, translate it into and from any language. Users may embed the Dotsub player onto most websites and blogs.
Express Scribe- Express Scribe is free transcription for audio. The free version will play back an audio file. And you can use it to just generate a raw transcript from audio.
