Overlay American Sign Language (ASL) stickers

Add captions and download a transcript using autocaptions
Make your videos more accessible and engaging on mute with the help of real-time subtitles. Using smart voice detection technology, our autocaptions feature generates fast subtitles in seconds with no typing needed. Reach viewers worldwide by selecting from a range of different languages, and even download a transcript for free as an SRT file.

Create voiceovers using AI or your own voice
Whether you’re creating a slideshow presentation, onboarding video, training, or product demos, capture the attention of your viewers while refining videos with voiceovers. Either create a professional voiceover using the AI text to speech feature, or record your own voice using the online audio recorder.
