What Captions does
Captions is an AI-powered video editor available on web, iOS, and Android. You upload footage — or generate entirely new footage using AI avatars — and the solution handles cutting, scene selection, B-roll overlays, music, transitions, and captions automatically. The result is a publish-ready video without manual timeline editing.
Beyond basic editing, Captions adds practical production features: it can fix inconsistent eye contact, remove background noise, cut filler words and pauses, and generate royalty-free music. It also auto-generates captions in stylized fonts and can translate and subtitle content across more than 100 languages, which matters if you're reaching audiences in multiple markets.
Finished videos can be published directly to Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, and YouTube from within the platform. A chat-based editor lets you direct changes using plain-text prompts rather than learning a traditional editing interface, which lowers the skill floor considerably for small teams or solo operators.
Key capabilities
Automated full-video editing
Upload footage and Captions cuts scenes, adds B-roll, music, and transitions automatically. You choose a visual style and the AI applies it across the whole video.
AI avatars and digital twins
Create a digital replica of yourself or choose from pre-built avatars to generate video without recording. Outfits, backgrounds, and product inserts can be changed via prompts.
Auto-captions and translation
Captions generates stylized subtitles automatically and can translate them into more than 100 languages, making it practical for multilingual or international content.
Eye contact correction and noise removal
The solution automatically adjusts inconsistent eye contact and strips unwanted background noise, reducing the need for reshoots or manual audio cleanup.
Prompt-based editing controls
A chat-style editor lets you describe the changes you want in plain language rather than navigating a traditional timeline, lowering the barrier for people without editing backgrounds.
Direct social media publishing
Completed videos can be pushed to Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, and YouTube without leaving the platform.
Best for
- Small business owners or solo marketers who need a steady output of social and promotional video without a dedicated editor on staff
- Teams producing content across multiple languages or regions who need subtitle translation at scale
- Businesses in retail, real estate, or healthcare that want polished video for ads, listings, or patient-facing content without high production overhead
- Creators or entrepreneurs who record on their own and want automatic cleanup — noise removal, pause trimming, eye contact fixes — baked into the editing step
- Operations trying to reduce video production costs and turnaround time by automating post-production tasks
Worth knowing
- The free tier is limited; most business-relevant features require a paid plan starting at $24.99/month, with higher-volume plans reaching $279.99/month — budget accordingly for your output volume
- AI editing works best when you have reasonably clean source footage; the solution reduces post-production work but doesn't fully substitute for basic recording quality
- AI avatars and digital twins may not suit all brand contexts — review your audience's expectations before replacing on-camera talent with generated video
- If your workflow requires deep integration with existing project management or DAM systems beyond the listed social platforms, check compatibility before committing
- Businesses with strict regulatory requirements around video content — particularly in healthcare or legal — should review Captions' terms and privacy policy before uploading sensitive footage
