Auto caption generator FAQ

What are automatic captions?

Automatic captions are timed text generated from the speech in a video. They help viewers follow the content when audio is muted or hard to hear.

Can I download a caption file and a subtitled video?

Yes. This workflow creates an editable SRT file and a subtitled MP4 so you can keep the captions separate or publish the video directly.

How do I make captions readable on mobile?

Use shorter lines, a clear font size, strong text contrast, and a position that avoids covering faces or important visuals.

What are the free limits?

You can generate captions for videos up to 60 minutes with 1 free generation per day.

Are my videos stored?

No. Videos are processed and removed automatically after caption generation.
