How it works

### From raw file to finished captions in four steps.

01

#### Import

Video or audio, any length. Drag it in and you're ready.

02

#### Generate

AI picks the best model for your file. Automatically.

03

#### Style

Fonts, colours, positions and animations. Make it yours.

04

#### Export

Video and subtitle files for every platform, in one go.

Transcription

### Transcription that picks the right brain for every file.

Three world-class engines, built in. Auto mode reads your file and your Mac, chooses the best one, and tells you why.

NVIDIA Parakeet. Extremely fast. 25 European languages, with punctuation and word timings built in.

OpenAI Whisper. Tiny to Large v3 Turbo. About 100 languages.

Apple Speech. Instant, and built right into macOS.

Every voice on its own layer. Mixed-language media gets one layer per language. Speaker Awareness (beta) gives each speaker a layer. Sounds like [Music] are labelled.

Captions that read well. Smart splitting at natural pauses and sentence ends. Readable lines. No stray single words.

Word-level timing. No length limits. Models update automatically.

Editing

### Edit at the speed of thought.

A real timeline, precise tools and Apple Intelligence at your side. Fix a whole video in the time it takes to watch it.

Multi-layer timeline. Colours, names, lock, hide and speaker tags. Waveform and magnetic snapping.

Pro tools. Select, Grab and Split, plus Merge, Divide Subtitles, New Line and Push Timeline.

Inline editor. Frame-accurate times. Intelligent Suggestion by Apple Intelligence rewrites captions so they read naturally.

Edit Captions panel. Select any number of captions and edit text and timings in one list. Or let Apple Intelligence improve them all.

Find what was said. Find & Replace with Enhanced Search: "find when they talk about the budget".

Clean and safe. Auto Clean Up removes filler words. Full undo with a visual History panel.

Design

### Design captions that look like you.

Your fonts, your colours, your motion. See exactly how it lands on every screen before you export.

Full type control. Any installed font. Size, bold, italic, underline, alignment and casing. Text, outline and background colours.

Put it anywhere. Drag captions across the video, with snapping guides.

View modes. Preview Desktop 16:9, Tablet 4:3 and Mobile 9:16 exactly as viewers will see them.

Animation Gallery. Karaoke, word pop, glow, typewriter and many more. Live previews with your own text.
