Auto caption FAQ
Answers for caption workflows
Short, direct answers for creators comparing auto subtitle tools, caption generators, and full clip editors.
What are auto captions for videos?
Auto captions are subtitles generated from the spoken audio in a video. ViraClips turns speech into synced caption text, then renders styled subtitles directly onto short-form clips for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and other social platforms.
Can I edit the auto-generated captions?
Yes. You can edit transcript text, fix names, adjust timing, change caption position, and choose different visual styles before export. The editor keeps the captions synced while you polish the final clip.
Are captions burned into the exported video?
Yes. ViraClips renders captions into the final video file, so the subtitles appear consistently on every platform without relying on native subtitle tracks or viewer settings.
Do auto captions work for TikTok and YouTube Shorts?
Yes. Caption placement is designed for vertical 9:16 content, with mobile safe-zone awareness so subtitles avoid common app overlays where possible.
Can I use auto captions with AI clipping?
Yes. ViraClips can find clips from long videos and add captions, smart cropping, hooks, and exports in the same workflow. You can also use caption styling inside the editor after clips are generated.
