A free CapCut alternative for captions

For what most people use CapCut for on a short video, automatic animated captions, you don't need an account or a subscription. Drop your video here, pick a style and download it. No watermark, and the video never leaves your device.

Drop your video here MP4, MOV or WEBM · vertical or horizontal · never uploaded

Your video never leaves your device: everything runs in your browser.

Why look for a CapCut alternative?

CapCut is a complete and very capable editor. But since its 2025 pricing changes, several industry publications report that it limits auto captions on the free plan and keeps some styles and AI tools for paid plans, which also remove the watermark from those features. Plans and prices change often, so always check CapCut's official site.

If all you need is to caption a video you have already edited, a dedicated tool is quicker and doesn't charge you for it.

Frequently asked questions

Is it as accurate as CapCut?

We use an open-source speech recognition model from the Whisper family. CapCut doesn't publish accuracy figures, so we can't compare numbers; the best test is your own video, and it's free with no sign-up.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes, in modern browsers on Android and iPhone. Older phones and long videos are slower, because everything runs on the phone itself.

What happens to my video?

Nothing leaves your device: not the video, not the audio, not the text. That's why we don't need an account or any rights over your content.
