What can you do with captions?
Auto captions
Speech becomes timed captions in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Russian, Arabic, Japanese, Korean or Chinese, or let it detect the language.
Import SRT or VTT
Already have subtitles? Import the file and they land on their own track, timed to the video. Free on every plan.
Styles
Clean, Outline, Pop and Glow caption styles, plus every font in the text panel.
Edit every line
Captions are normal text clips: change a word, move a line, or restyle one caption without touching the rest.
