Automatic captions you can make your own.
Make the spoken words in your Shorts easier to follow. Clipper Studio generates captions from your footage and gives you control over the text, timing and style before you render the finished video.
Paid plans from €15/month, excluding applicable taxes.
Start with speech in your own footage
Upload a recording with spoken audio and use the speech-analysis workflow. Transcription gives you a starting point for the clip's captions, so you do not have to type every line yourself. Background noise, overlapping speakers and specialist vocabulary can affect the result, so review the transcript before publishing.
Correct the words and their timing
Open the clip in the editor to review caption text and timing alongside the video. Correct a person's name, adjust a phrase that was misheard, and check that the words appear when they are spoken. Editing captions is especially useful for interviews and podcasts where the same technical term appears repeatedly.
Choose a style that fits the frame
Select a subtitle preset and preview it together with the vertical crop and hook. Check short and long lines, moving subjects and the end of the clip. Captions should support the footage without obscuring the detail viewers need to see. Previewing the complete result is more useful than judging a single still frame.
Export a captioned MP4
Render the clip to bake the chosen captions into the video. The downloaded MP4 carries the same caption appearance when you upload it elsewhere. These are visible captions in the picture, rather than a separate subtitle track that viewers can turn off. Each successful new render counts toward your plan's export allowance.
Before you get started
Can I edit the automatically generated captions?
Yes. You can correct caption text and timing in the clip editor, then render a new version.
Are the captions included in the downloaded video?
Yes. Rendered captions are burned into the MP4, so they remain visible outside Clipper Studio.
Can I translate the captions?
Yes. Choose an available caption language in the editor and use Translate captions. Review the translated text before rendering. Caption translation changes the subtitles; the original spoken audio stays the same.
