Captions
Automatic captions that read like a human wrote them
Pick a video or audio file and Subera writes word-accurate captions in 100+ languages, broken at natural sentence ends and timed to every word.
Why use automatic captions
Timed to every word
Speech is transcribed word by word, so each caption appears exactly when it is said and leaves when it is done.
Lines that make sense
Captions break at the end of a thought, not in the middle of one, and stay short enough to read at a glance.
Names checked for you
Subera fixes well-known names it misheard and flags the rest, so you can confirm them in one place.

FAQ
Automatic captions: common questions
How accurate are Subera captions?
Subera uses a large speech-recognition model with word-level timing, then tidies the text and checks names. Clear speech is usually near word-perfect. Songs and videos with loud background music are harder: Subera tries its best, but expect to fix more words. You can correct anything in the editor before you export.
How long does it take?
A short reel is usually ready in a minute or two. Longer videos take a little longer.
Can I caption audio, like a podcast or a voice note?
Yes. Pick Audio when you start a project. You get the same captions, and you can export them as subtitles or as a plain-text transcript.
