Captions and subtitles

In closed beta · Not yet on sale

Captions come from the transcript, so fixing the transcript fixes the captions. Rooster is in closed beta and not on sale yet; these guides describe the app its testers are using now.

  • Add captions to a video

    Generate captions from a Rooster transcript in one click, choose how many words sit on each card, fix a word, and rebuild them after editing.

  • Style captions: font, colour, highlight, position

    Change a caption style's font, size, colours, word highlight, outline and position in Rooster, save it as a look, or style one scene differently.

  • Export SRT or VTT subtitles

    Save a Rooster project's captions as an SRT or WebVTT subtitle file for YouTube or any player, with your cuts and corrections applied.
