What they are

Captions

Captions is a mobile-first AI video editor aimed at creators who produce talking-head content for social media. It auto-generates captions, removes filler words, corrects eye contact, and can clone your voice for overdubs. The app targets solo creators who want a post-production shortcut, though its desktop feature set is still catching up to its mobile counterpart.

Happy Scribe

Happy Scribe converts audio and video files into accurate transcripts and subtitles using automated speech recognition or human transcriptionists. Journalists, podcasters, researchers, and video creators use it to save editing time and make content accessible. The automated tier is affordable and quick, though accuracy drops noticeably with heavy accents or low-quality recordings, making human transcription the safer choice for high-stakes work.
