What ZapCap is
ZapCap creates AI captions for videos and provides editing tools for social media content. Users can upload a video or paste a YouTube, TikTok, or Instagram link, then export an MP4 or download subtitles in SRT, VTT, or TXT. Upload support includes MP4, MOV, MKV, and more than 60 formats, up to 4K. Captions can be styled and burned into video. The homepage describes caption generation 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 emoji caption templates. Pro and Agency+ include dubbing that replaces speech with a voice-cloned voiceover in one of 29 languages and adjusts captions, but does not change the picture for lip sync. ZapCap also offers an API that can return captioned video, transparent overlays, or green-screen layers and supports webhook workflows. A free plan allows three videos per month, up to 1 minute 30 seconds each. Paid plans start at $8 a month, billed annually.
