Great software that does exactly what is needed, except for few features that are announced but to yet available. Keep up with the good work!

The app makes captioning an easy task, allowing us to caption more shows than ever before, it has brought a positive change for us (previously we were using PowerPoint). I highly recommend you give it a try!
Maria Pinto

We have been using Captitles for a few months, and we're definitely going to stick with it. The import and translation features alone have saved us countless hours of work, and I'm looking forward to the other features that have been promised for the app (especially for the option to invite colleagues!)

See more questions
Can AI by processing my script really produce high-quality supertitles?
Absolutely, give it a try yourself! Our app is free to download. Just import your script and experience the quality firsthand.
Our theater lacks the necessary equipment for surtitling. Is there a way you can assist?
Yes, we can help. Our upcoming feature, Captions to Audio, eliminates the need for projection equipment. It streams translated spoken surtitles like a podcast, requiring only a smartphone, earphones, and internet access for your audience.
How can we reduce the cost of implementing surtitles?
Captitles significantly reduces the time and cost of creating surtitles by automating and translating them through AI. Plus, we're developing features like Automatic Surtitles Detection and Captions to Audio to further cut costs.
We had supertitles in our past, but they didn't attract more audience. Why?
Consistency and marketing are key. Regular captioning of all shows and clear information about this in your marketing materials are vital. Promoting your captioned shows in relevant channels, like local groups for people with hearing disabilities, can also make a significant difference.
What's the difference between surtitles made in PowerPoint and your app?
If you have previous experience creating surtitles in PowerPoint, try downloading Captitles and importing your script. You will notice the difference for yourself.
