Reel ClipsCaptions
Put the spoken line on the clip.
Auto-generate reads the clip audio and places timed lines on the caption track. Fix a word, pick a style, and the words leave with the export.
Text
Auto-generate fills the caption track.
In the editor, Captions opens on the Text tab. With no lines yet, the button says Auto-generate. After lines exist, the same button says Regenerate.
The request uses the clip’s audio and comes back as segments. Each segment has a start, an end, the line, and the words inside it. A line you type is split into words the same way, so the highlight can move with the playhead.

Styles
The line sits on the preview.
Styles is the other tab. Hype is yellow comic type with a purple glow. Impact is the meme treatment, with a second line when the preset has one. Soft is clean text along the bottom. A custom style keeps the colors and placement you set.
A switch shows or hides the overlay. Size and placement are on that same panel, so the words can sit higher or lower before you export.
The line list
Click a line, change the words, add an emoji.
Each row shows the time and the text. The row for the current playhead scrolls into view. Edit the text and the words on that line are rebuilt. An emoji can be appended to the line.
Those lines also seed the export caption. The dialog joins them into the post text, and you can still rewrite that text for each account. The trial is 3 days. Reel Clips is $15 a month.

Questions
- Where do the words come from?
- Auto-generate sends the clip audio to subtitle generation and drops the returned lines on the caption track, with a start, an end, and the words inside each line. If that request fails, you type the lines yourself.
- Can I change the look?
- Yes. The Captions panel has Text and Styles. Styles include Hype, Impact, and Soft, plus a custom style. A switch shows or hides them on the preview.
