About this tool

Places text over a video, burning subtitles, titles, or on-screen explanations into the picture. Files never leave the browser.

When to use it

  • —Adding a title at the start of a video
  • —Adding short explanations so it makes sense watched without sound
  • —Labeling an element visible in the frame

Good to know

  • —Burned-in text cannot be removed or corrected later, so keep the original.
  • —If the video may need translating, use a separate subtitle file (SRT) instead of burning text in.
  • —Make text large enough and contrasted against the background so it reads on small screens.
