Capto Auto Subtitle Generator vs GetCaptions

Capto Auto Subtitle Generator creates editable, timestamped transcripts from uploaded videos using OpenAI Whisper. It automatically detects more than 100 spoken languages and can translate subtitles into 60+ languages. In its workspace, users can edit text and segment timestamps before exporting SRT, VTT, TXT, DOCX, or a burned-in MP4; the homepage also lists ASS. Optional multi-speaker diarization labels speakers and costs 1.5 credits per video minute. Accepted video formats are MP4, MOV, WebM, AVI, and MKV. Transcription costs 1 credit per minute, translation costs 0.2 credits per minute per language, and burned-in MP4 costs 2 credits per minute. The Free plan costs nothing and includes five minutes without a credit card. Essential costs $4 a month as a one-time purchase, with 120 credits that never expire and a 15-minute video limit. Creator and Pro are also one-time purchases at $9 a month and $17 a month, respectively. Growth costs $32 a month and auto-renews. Plans vary in credits, file size, video length, and concurrent exports or jobs. The privacy policy says source videos are deleted within 48 hours and extracted audio after transcription; audio or text may be processed by OpenAI, and optional diarization audio is sent to AssemblyAI.

GetCaptions automatically transcribes speech and creates, edits and exports video captions. Its transcription supports more than 100 languages with word-level timing. Users can style captions with animated templates, including karaoke, highlight, neon and pop designs, then translate finished captions into dozens of languages. A brand kit can apply a logo, colors and fonts, importing them from a website or YouTube channel. Videos can be exported with captions burned in, or subtitles can be downloaded as SRT or VTT files. MP4, MOV and WebM are listed upload formats. The free Starter plan includes 60 minutes of transcription per month, videos up to five minutes and three projects. Pro costs $15 a month and includes 500 transcription minutes monthly, videos up to 60 minutes and 50 projects. Studio costs $35 a month and adds one-click publishing to TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, API access and unlimited usage subject to fair use. Uploaded audio is transcribed on GetCaptions' servers rather than sent to a third-party transcription service. Video files are retained for reopening and editing until the project or account is deleted.
