What they are

Captions

AI-first video editor focused on short-form content for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts. Automatic captions, eye-contact correction, AI avatars, and one-tap video creation from a script.

Transistor

Transistor is a podcast hosting platform that distributes episodes to Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and other directories from a single dashboard. It suits independent creators, agencies, and companies running more than one show, since all plans include unlimited podcasts. The analytics are clean and honest, though they stop short of the granular listener-behavior data that some larger platforms offer.
