Edit video and podcasts by editing text
Edit audio and video by deleting, rearranging or retyping words in the automatic transcript, with a full multitrack timeline available when you need it.
Describe the edit you want in plain language and let the AI assistant assemble a tight cut, add clips and handle repetitive production work.
Remove background noise, level out voices, and fix misread lines with Regenerate Speech using a clone of your own voice.
Generate subtitles and transcripts in a click, translate video into other languages, and reformat long recordings into shareable vertical clips.
Accurate animated captions plus automated video editing
Automatic transcription covers 100+ spoken languages with frame-accurate timing, and captions can be rendered in 90+ output languages including dedicated CJK and Southeast Asian styling.
Choose from 50+ animated caption styles, edit wording on the timeline, and export as MP4 with burned-in captions or download SRT, VTT and TXT subtitle files.
ZapCap inserts B-roll, applies transitions, adds emojis, images and GIFs, removes silences and filler words, and layers sound effects or background music to speed up the edit.
Manage up to 200 projects per month on the top tier, with per-video length limits rising from 1m30s on free to 10 minutes on Agency+ and processing speed up to 4x faster.
