Auto Subtitle Generation with Word Animations

Each animation is engineered to maximize viewer retention and dwell time, giving your videos that viral CapCut-level look directly in your browser.

Remove Silences and Dead Air

The AI-powered editorial engine analyzes your audio waveform and instantly flags every awkward pause. With a single toggle, all dead air is removed, making your video up to 30% shorter without any manual scrubbing. This feature alone saves hours of editing time, especially for podcasters, interviewers, and vloggers who need tight, engaging content without the gaps.

Filler Word Filter

Automatically detect and visually tag filler words like "um," "uh," and "like" in your transcript. Instead of removing them entirely, AddSubtitles strikes them through so viewers see the hesitation without hearing it. This keeps your speech natural while polishing your final product. It is an instant polish for anyone who speaks off the cuff.

AI Hook Generator and Auto Emojis

Paste your transcript and get five attention-grabbing spoken hooks engineered to maximize viewer retention in the critical first three seconds. Additionally, the Auto Emojis feature reads your script and drops context-aware emojis above or below your text, eliminating manual placement. These two features work together to make your content instantly more engaging and shareable.
