AutoCaption generates captions from the audio or video in your After Effects projects, so you do not have to type every line by hand. Speech is transcribed with AI, online or fully on your own machine when you work offline, and the result lands as real After Effects text layers that you can restyle freely. A library of ready made caption styles covers common looks for social clips, interviews and longer edits. Updated Aug 19, 2026.

FAQs

Do captions stay editable after generation?

Yes. Captions are normal After Effects text layers, so fonts, colours, timing and animation can all be changed by hand.

Can AutoCaption work without the internet?

Yes. It can transcribe locally on your machine, which suits offline work and private material.

Which languages are supported?

The tool supports a very wide list of languages with automatic detection, including scripts written from right to left.
