ZapCap
What it is
ZapCap generates AI captions for videos and provides editing tools for social media content. Add a video by uploading it or pasting a YouTube, TikTok, or Instagram link, then export an MP4 or download subtitles in SRT, VTT, or TXT. The service supports caption styling and burn-in captions. Its homepage says it generates captions in 90+ languages; its workflow page lists speech transcription in 100+ languages. Editing options include B-rolls, transitions, automatic descriptions and hashtags, sound effects, background music, and caption templates with emojis. Uploads include MP4, MOV, MKV, and more than 60 formats, up to 4K. The free plan allows 3 videos per month, each up to 1 minute 30 seconds. Paid plans start at $8 a month, billed annually. Pro and Agency+ include AI dubbing in 29 target languages; dubbing uses 2 AI credits per second and does not alter the picture for lip sync. The captioning API can return rendered video, transparent overlays, or green-screen layers and supports webhook workflows.
