How to Add Captions to Any Video

The caption generator burns word-by-word captions onto any video you upload — including footage you filmed yourself. Pick a caption style, upload the file, and download the rendered result. Reels generated by Regent already include captions; this tool covers everything else.

Before you start

  • A Regent account
  • A video file to caption

Steps

  1. 1

    Open the Caption Generator

    Pick a caption template from the available styles — each defines the on-screen look of the captions.

  2. 2

    Upload your video

    Drag and drop or use the file picker. The upload goes straight to secure storage.

  3. 3

    Generate

    The job runs in the background with live status. History keeps your past jobs with filters for running, completed, and failed.

  4. 4

    Download

    When complete, download the captioned video and a thumbnail preview. Post it anywhere.

A set of caption templates, each with a distinct on-screen style. Pick one per job; rerun with a different template to compare.
