Auto captions

Automatic word-by-word captions for your Shorts

Most short videos are watched with the sound off. Captions decide whether someone keeps watching or scrolls away. ClipAtelier transcribes every clip and burns in captions timed to each word, with a highlight that follows the speaker.

Pick a caption style, change the font and colour, and translate captions into 19 languages to reach viewers in other markets.

    Caption in the spoken language or translate into another one.

Why captions matter on Shorts

Captions keep muted viewers watching, make your clips accessible, and help the message land even in a noisy environment. Animated, word-by-word captions also give the eye something to follow, which keeps attention on the clip.
