Create Better Videos with Our Multilingual Automated Captions

Creating videos that truly engage your audience can be tough, especially when you’re juggling multiple tasks at once. One thing that makes a massive difference? Captions. But let’s be real – manually adding captions to your videos sucks. It takes way too much time, having to transcribe everything that was said, then having to trim everything and make sure they're all in synch with the audio… That’s why StreamLadder’s AI automatic captions feature is designed to take the pain out of the process. In this post, we’ll break down exactly how this feature works and why it’s a game-changer for your content creation.

Why Automatic Captions Are a Game-Changer

Let's face it – adding captions to videos is usually a pain, right? Whether you're posting clips on social media or creating content for your audience, captions are a must for accessibility and engagement. But who has the time to manually type them out? That’s where our automatic captions feature comes in.

Our tool does the boring part by transcribing the audio directly from your video – in 20 different languages! It’s not translating between languages (yet!), but if you upload a clip in Spanish, you’ll get captions in Spanish. Got a video in Korean? No problem – it’ll generate Korean captions. You can even choose from different forms of English, like British, US, or Australian.  

Pretty neat, right? And it gets better – you’re not stuck with the AI’s first guess. If it messes up a word or decides to bleep out a cheeky swear, you can easily jump in and fix it. No hassle.

Customising Your Captions: Make Them Yours

So, now that you’ve got your captions auto-generated, what’s next? Well, the fun part! Our tool isn’t just about slapping text on your video – it gives you full control to customise how your captions look. Want to change the font, size, or colour? Go for it. You can even match the style to your brand or mood of the video.

Feeling extra creative? You can add emojis too! 🎉🎥 The AI will actually automatically add emojis to the captions, you can choose if you want them, or not! Whether it’s a laughing face or a little thumbs-up, emojis are great for giving your captions a bit of personality. Think of it as a way to keep things fun and light, while making sure your message gets across.

Plus, these customisations are super easy to make. Everything’s designed to be intuitive, so you won’t need to fumble around with complicated tools. Just click, edit, and go. The goal is to make your video look exactly how you want it, as fast as possible.

Why Captions Matter (And Why You Shouldn’t Skip Them)

Now, you might be wondering – do captions really make a difference? Short answer: absolutely, 100% YES. Whether you’re trying to grow your audience or just make your content more inclusive, captions are a must.

First off, not everyone watches videos with sound on. Maybe they’re in a crowded place, or a public place, or they don't have their headphones with them, or maybe they just prefer scrolling quietly. Captions ensure that these viewers don’t miss out on what you’re saying. They also make your content accessible to people who have hearing impairments, which is huge for inclusivity.

And here’s the kicker: captions can actually boost your engagement. People are more likely to stick around when they can follow along easily, and it’s also been shown that captions improve comprehension (think about all the non-native speakers that might be helped by reading the words while hearing them!). So, not only are you reaching more people, but you’re also making sure your message hits home.

Add in the fact that our tool supports 20 languages, and you’ve got the perfect way to make your videos accessible to audiences across the globe – without the headache of manual transcription and synchronisation. It’s all about making things easier for you while ensuring your viewers get the best experience.

With our automatic captions feature, creating engaging and accessible videos has never been easier. From supporting multiple languages to allowing full customisation, this tool saves you time and effort while helping you reach a wider audience. Whether you’re captioning in Global English, Hindi or Vietnamese, you’ve got everything you need to make your clips stand out – and be understood.
