How does it work in Cutora?

  1. Cutora transcribes your video in the language you speak.
  2. The first cut makes captions from the transcript, one caption per card.
  3. Pick a style: Clean, Bold or Karaoke.
  4. Fix any wrong words or timing in the editor.
  5. Export. The captions are burned into the MP4, and the SRT in the ZIP carries the text.

What do you control?

  • Pick one of three styles: Clean, Bold or Karaoke.
  • Edit each caption's words and timing, add a caption at the playhead or delete one.
  • Key words in English captions can be highlighted, and that is a separate switch.

Hit record.

Cutora makes the first cut.

Every Cutora AI edit starts with the first cut, written for creators who film themselves and edit their own takes. The nearest older technique is auto jump cuts, which cut out the pauses; Cutora AI also cuts false starts and repeated takes. It works on the footage you recorded and won’t generate video. You can create an account now and try it on one video.
