Transcribe your video and caption it in the same pass
Most transcription tools stop at a wall of text. Captiono transcribes your video's dialogue with word-level accuracy and turns it into both a readable transcript and a fully styled, positioned caption track — at the same time, in the same browser tab.
One upload, two outputs
Upload your video once and walk away with both a plain-text transcript and a fully captioned, styled export — you don't need a separate transcription tool and a separate captioning tool.
Transcript and timeline stay linked
Click any line in the transcript to jump to that exact moment in the video. Fix a word in the transcript and the caption timing updates automatically, no manual re-syncing.
Useful beyond captions
The transcript works well on its own too — for show notes, blog posts, video descriptions, or making your content searchable and accessible.
From transcript to finished video
Once your video is transcribed, review the text alongside the playback, fix anything that was misheard, then move straight into styling. Pick a caption template, choose a font, position the captions on the frame, and export — all without leaving the same project or re-uploading anything.
Want the transcription without the visual styling, just clean subtitle files? Try the subtitle generator. Transcribing something audio-only, like a podcast or interview, instead of a video? See transcribe audio. Or read the complete step-by-step process.
Frequently asked questions
Do I get a plain transcript, or just captions?+
Both. Every upload produces a full plain-text transcript alongside the word-level-timed captions — export either independently, or both at once.
Can I use the transcript for something other than captions?+
Yes — it's a clean, standalone text file, commonly used for show notes, blog posts, video descriptions, or making content searchable.
If I fix a word in the transcript, does the video caption update too?+
Yes. The transcript and the caption timeline are the same underlying data, so correcting a word in one updates it everywhere.
Does transcription work for videos with multiple speakers?+
Yes, the transcript captures all spoken dialogue with word-level timing. Speaker labels aren't automatically added, but you can note who's speaking as you review the transcript.
