TikTok Captions: Word-by-Word Captions for Your TikToks

Most TikToks are watched with the sound off, and TikTok's own captions are plain text on a grey box. Capsubs burns bold captions into your video that light up each word as you say it, so the same file is ready for TikTok, Reels and Shorts.

Best Fit Teams

  • Creators who talk to camera and post several times a week
  • Anyone who edits in another app and only needs the caption step
  • Accounts that want one recognisable caption style on every video

Operational Outcomes

  • Captions that read clearly in the muted feed
  • The spoken word highlighted in yellow, green, cyan or pink
  • One captioned file to post on TikTok, Reels and Shorts
