Very good for Captions

It is very useful. I'm using it mostly for captions and it is very good for that. I didn't use other AI features, but I guess they are good.

Thank you, Jazmin! Helping small teams create and caption content without a big production lift is exactly what we hope to do. The recommendation means a lot.

Captions is an amazing app with powerful, easy-to-use features that make creating professional videos so much easier. What impressed me even more was their outstanding customer support! I accidentally purchased the annual subscription instead of the monthly plan, and Sam quickly helped me cancel it and receive a full refund in five minutes. The entire process was smooth, fast, and stress-free. It’s refreshing to see a company that truly values its customers. Highly recommend Captions for both its fantastic features and exceptional service!

Thank you, Maryam! We're glad the billing mix-up was sorted quickly and painlessly — that's how it should be. Really appreciate the thoughtful review.

Clown site

Clown site.

You must pay before you receive the preview of your work. Because by giving you a glimpse of the end result of your work, you could capture it without paying.

So you have to imagine your finished work and hope that the result is super awesome only and that's all you get before you pay.

So don't come and tell me that we are in an idiotcracy, it's more than obvious.

A brilliant customer experience

A really good product but when I had a query their response was super quick and Sam sorted everything out without a fuss. I wish more companies could deal with customers in this way.

Hands down the best video editing app

Hands down the best one-click edit video editing app. Bumped into some confusion and reached out to the customer support, super responsive and helpful. Totally recommended.

DO NOT TRY IT

I'm going to be completely honest. Captions is a complete waste of time. The AI that promises to give you viral videos makes poor choices that lead to a video which looks like it was made by a sloppy AI, which it was. The most frustrating thing about it is that you will waste more time attempting to go back and fix the AI's mistakes, than you would use doing this manually in something like Descript from the jump.

Please avoid wasting your time and money, as they do not give refunds for any of the monthly subscriptions. It is a very bad service. The AI is terrible. The customer service is non-responsive and will not reply to any asks for help or refund on their terrible product.

Truly, try something like Descript first. This is a bad product, company, AI experience, and waste of time.

Thank you for taking the time to lay this out — it's clearly a frustrating experience and we're sorry. Output that needs heavy manual fixing defeats the purpose of the tool, and a support request going unanswered isn't acceptable. We'd genuinely like to look into both the billing side and the messages you sent. Please contact our support team and reference this review so we can pick it up directly.
