Captioning by hand eats your week
Typing every line, timing every word and styling it to match your niche is the slowest part of editing a Short. Post daily and that is hours you could spend filming.
For creators who post Shorts, Reels and TikToks
Stop captioning your videos by hand.
Captixa transcribes every word, times it, and animates it in the style your audience stops for. Pick one of 108 presets and export in minutes, on your own Windows PC or Mac.
- No watermark with Pro
- Your video stays on your computer
- Instant license key
Captions make videos watchable. Making them is the worst part of editing.
Caption websites want your footage and a subscription
Many online caption tools make you upload the whole video and charge by the month with a minutes cap.
Auto-captions get your language wrong
Speak Hindi or Urdu and many tools mis-hear it, or write it in a script your audience does not read. Hinglish and Roman Urdu viewers scroll past.
Load a video. Pick a look. Export.
Captixa writes out every word with its own timing, then animates the words as they're spoken. These are real exports from the app, on the same clip. Each look is a single click.
- 1Load an MP4, MOV, MKV, AVI or WebM file.
- 2Transcribe with Groq, OpenAI or offline Whisper.
- 3Style it with a preset, then tweak anything.
- 4Export an MP4 up to 4K, transparent captions, or SRT, VTT and ASS.
Timed to every word
The highlight lands exactly as each word is spoken

- No watermark with Pro

Cut it, clean it, caption it
Try every one of them free. Jump cuts, voice cleanup, transparent export and batch export with Pro.
Jump cuts
Finds every pause and every "um" and "uh", shows how much time they cost, and cuts them in one click. Picture, sound and captions stay in sync. How it works
AI voice cleanup
Removes hiss, hum, fans and room noise with an AI model that runs on your computer, then evens out the voice and sets -14 LUFS loudness. How it works
Transparent captions
Export the captions alone as ProRes 4444, WebM or a PNG sequence, and drop them above your video in Premiere, Final Cut, Resolve or After Effects. How it works
Batch captions
Caption and export a whole folder with one set of settings. Preview one file first; each file is saved as a project you can fine-tune. How it works
Reframe and audio files
Crop a landscape video to 9:16, 1:1 or 4:5, or caption a podcast or voice note on a plain frame. How it works
Faster editing
Names and brands spelled your way, find and replace, auto emoji, swear-word bleeps, and SRT, WebVTT and ASS subtitle files. How it works
Plus the 0.1.0 studio pack: 43 templates, gradient, glow and shadow, and templates of your own. See every feature.

Anything else? Send us a message and a real person will reply.
Do I have to pay for an API key?
No, if you use local Whisper: it is free and runs offline. Groq has a free tier that covers most creators. OpenAI and Gemini bill you directly, at their own rates. Keys are stored on your computer only.
What is the difference between Free and Pro?
The Free plan has every caption style and feature for up to 5 videos a day, 2 minutes each, for personal use, with a Captixa.com watermark on exports. Pro removes the limits and the watermark, and adds a commercial license, priority support and early access to new features.
Will it get my language right?
Captixa transcribes 50 languages with Whisper and times every word. You can fix any word, sentence or timing in the editor before you export.
Does it work on Mac?
Yes. Captixa runs on Windows 10/11 and macOS.
Is my video uploaded anywhere?
No. Your video stays on your computer. With Groq or OpenAI only the extracted audio is sent for transcription, and with local Whisper nothing leaves your machine.
I don't have a gaming PC. Will it run?
Yes. Captixa runs on any 64-bit computer with 4 GB of RAM (8 GB recommended) and exports on the CPU. An NVIDIA or Intel GPU on Windows just makes export faster.
Can I make my own caption style?
Yes. Start from any of the 108 presets, change the font, colors, gradient, glow, shadow and animation, and save the result as a template of your own. It appears under "Mine" in every project, and you can apply it to all captions or to a single line.
What do the Pro tools add?
Jump cuts (pauses and filler words), AI voice cleanup, transparent caption export (ProRes 4444, WebM, PNG) and batch captions. On the Free plan you can set all four up and preview them; when you export, Captixa lists the ones in use so you can upgrade or export without them.
Can I use it for client work?
Yes. Pro includes a commercial license, and client footage never leaves your machine.
How many computers can I use my license on?
One at a time. To switch, deactivate the old computer from your dashboard and activate the new one. You can do this any time.
How do I get my license?
Your license key is shown right after checkout and emailed to you. Open Captixa, go to License, paste the key and click Activate.
What's your refund policy?
Try everything on the Free plan first: every caption style, and the Pro tools to set up and preview, with a watermark on exports. A license that has never been activated can be refunded; email us from the address you bought with. Once a license is activated on a computer, the sale is final, except for exceptional cases such as a duplicate charge or buying the wrong plan by mistake.
Your next video, captioned in minutes.
Unlimited videos, every style, jump cuts, voice cleanup, batch, a commercial license and no watermark, on Windows and macOS.
