Captions

Improve clarity, accessibility, and reach

The Captions feature in CANVID lets you automatically add captions to your video using speech-to-text technology. Once your transcript is created, captions are generated and synced to your timeline. You can customize the appearance and choose when they show during playback.
Captions make your videos easier to understand, especially in quiet environments or for viewers watching without sound. They also improve accessibility and viewer retention. With CANVID, you can auto generate captions for your video in seconds and publish with confidence.
