Add subtitles to video · in ChatGPT and Claude
Creative Claw adds subtitles inside ChatGPT, Claude or Codex: attach the video and ask for captions, and it transcribes the speech, times every word and burns karaoke-style subtitles into a new MP4, sized for Reels, TikTok or YouTube. You can set the position, size, colors and an exact Google Font, and fix any misheard word for free. It costs 6 credits a minute with a 2-credit minimum, so our 6-second clip was 2 credits ($0.02).
