Six steps from first upload to client approval

Each lesson has a short video of the real interface (no staged scenes) and written steps. Videos never autoplay — press play. Academy gathers the lessons with search and watch progress.

1. Upload your first file

  1. Drag the file onto the upload zone, or click it to choose

    MP4, MOV, WAV, or MP3, up to 500 MB per file. You can pick several files at once.

  2. Watch the progress bar

    Uploads are resumable: if the connection drops, pick the same file again and it continues where it stopped.

  3. Open the project

    When it finishes, the project card appears under Recent projects marked Uploaded. Click it to open the studio.

2. Generate and correct the captions

  1. Choose the clip's language

    In the Text tab, Arabic is the default. Set a dialect if you want to hint the transcriber, then press Generate captions.

  2. Wait for the job

    The job shows under Jobs and processing. Minutes are charged up front and refunded automatically if it fails or you cancel it.

  3. Correct the text in place

    Segments appear with their timing. Edit any field, split or merge segments, or fine-tune word timing from Word timing.

  4. Save

    Save captions, or Ctrl/⌘+S. Every save creates a version you can restore from Previous versions.

3. Pick a style and template

  1. Open the Style tab, then Templates

    Click any template to see it on the preview right away. Motion works per word, not per line.

  2. Adjust the details

    Font, size, color, and margin live under Text. Custom fonts uploaded in Settings show up here.

  3. Don't judge by the preview

    The preview is approximate and low-resolution. Export uses the original video's full resolution.

4. Translation and dubbing

  1. Translate the captions

    In the Translate captions section, choose a language and press Translate. The translation appears in its own field under each segment; the original stays untouched.

  2. Review before publishing

    Translation comes from an open language model. Check names and terminology, and edit the field directly.

  3. Dubbing (beta)

    Dub (beta) under the editing tools generates Arabic speech for the translation and needs a translation first. Switch between original and dubbed audio from the preview button, and review the result before approving.

5. Export

  1. Open the Export tab

    Export video burns the captions into an MP4 at the original resolution or 4K. The job shows under Jobs and processing.

  2. Choose what to export

    Original, translation, or both. The same choice applies to the video and to the subtitle files.

  3. Download the files

    SRT and VTT for your editing software, or the ZIP bundle with the import guide. The alpha-channel MOV layer needs its own export job from the tools.

6. Client review

  1. Create a review link

    The Review link button at the top of the studio freezes a snapshot of the captions and creates a link valid for seven days.

  2. Send the link

    Your client needs no account. They watch the captioned video, leave notes tied to the playback position, download the SRT, and approve the version.

  3. Follow up on the notes

    Notes arrive under Reviews in the Export tab. Later edits never change the old link; create a new one after editing.
