Frequently asked questions
- Is the subtitle generator free?
- Yes. Your first 3 subtitled videos are free and download without a watermark. No credit card is needed. After that, each video costs 5 credits (up to 5 minutes) or 10 credits (up to 10 minutes) on a paid plan. The free plan is not offered in every country.
- What does 'automatic' mean here?
- Transcription, line breaks and timing are all generated by AI without manual input. You only review and style if you want to.
- Can I edit the captions?
- Yes. Every word in the transcript is editable, and you can change the caption style before you export.
- What languages does it support?
- oVideo detects the spoken language automatically and writes the subtitles in that language. It does not translate subtitles into other languages.
- How long can my video be?
- Up to 10 minutes and 1 GB, as an MP4, MOV or WebM file.
- Can I download an SRT file?
- Not yet. oVideo burns the captions into the video and exports an MP4, which is what TikTok, Reels and Shorts need.
- Will captions help my reach?
- Most social video is watched on mute, so on-screen captions typically improve watch time and completion rate.
