Karaoke captions, free and made in your browser
Karaoke captions highlight the single word being spoken and leave the rest of the line dimmed. That is the reason short-form captions hold attention: the eye is pulled along the sentence at the speed of the voice, instead of reading ahead and losing interest.

How karaoke captions work
It needs word-level timing, not sentence timing. Speech-to-text returns a start and an end for every word, and the caption is repainted on each one — so the highlight lands on the syllable rather than drifting a beat behind it.
Nothing is uploaded
The transcription, the styling and the final render all run on your own machine. There is no server in the middle, no queue and no account — open the video, generate the captions, download the file.
You do not have to take that on trust: open the network tab in your browser while captions are generating and watch it stay empty.
Change anything you like
The style is a starting point. Font, size, colour, highlight, position and animation stay editable once it is applied, and every change is previewed on your own footage rather than on a stock clip.
Questions
Are karaoke captions free?
Yes. Every style is free, and free exports are unlimited at 480p with a small watermark. Paying once for a video removes the watermark and unlocks higher resolutions.
Do I need to sign up?
No. There is no account, and nothing is uploaded anywhere.
Can I export the subtitles as a file?
Yes — captions download as .srt or .vtt, as well as being burned into the video.
