From upload to subtitled video

Five steps, start to finish — nothing to install.

1

Upload your media

Drag in a video or audio file — MP4, MOV, WebM, MP3, WAV and more. We extract the audio in your browser and send only that for transcription, then delete it once the job is done.

Example: A 10-minute interview or a 30-second reel both work.

2

Get AI subtitles

Captivo transcribes the speech automatically. Pick the spoken language or let it auto-detect. You get time-synced, word-level subtitles.

Example: Longer recordings simply take longer — you can leave the tab and come back.

3

Edit & review

Fix wording, adjust timing, and merge or split lines in the editor. Turn on warnings to spot low-confidence words, off-screen text, or one-word lines.

Example: Double-click a subtitle to edit it; drag its edges on the timeline to retime.

4

Translate (optional)

Translate your subtitles into one or many languages with a click, and give each language its own color so viewers can follow along.

Example: Ukrainian on top, English below — both burned into the same video.

5

Style & export

Choose fonts, size, colors, outline and position — or a saved preset. Then export a video with subtitles burned in, or download SRT / VTT / TXT.

Example: Save your look as a preset once, then reuse it on every future video.

Pro tips

Use Google Chrome for the fastest, highest-quality video export.

Save a favorite style as a preset — it lives on your account and follows you across devices.

Add names and terms to the Glossary so transcription and translation keep them accurate.
