captions.
Most LinkedIn video is watched on mute — so captions decide whether anyone reads your message. Add clean, professional burned-in captions to your clip in minutes. Free, no credit card.
Style your LinkedIn captions
in your browser.
Live caption preview, click-to-correct transcript for names and jargon, per-line drag positioning, clean professional styles to pick from.
Built for the LinkedIn
feed.
Silent autoplay, professional audiences, and three aspect ratios — captions that fit how LinkedIn actually works.
Watched on mute — captions are essential
Most LinkedIn feed video autoplays silent. Without captions your message never lands. Burned-in captions keep viewers reading — and watching — past the first second.
Clean, professional caption styles
Not just loud TikTok looks. Pick from clean, restrained styles that fit a B2B feed — readable typography, subtle highlights, no novelty noise. 32+ styles total, dialled however you want.
Square, landscape, and vertical
LinkedIn feeds run 1:1 square, 16:9 landscape, and 9:16 vertical. All three are supported, so captions sit correctly whatever aspect ratio you post.
Fast browser-based workflow
No install. Upload in the browser, auto-transcribe with Deepgram Nova-3, tweak, and export a finished MP4 — minutes, not an afternoon in an editing suite.

LinkedIn video captions FAQ.
Doesn't LinkedIn auto-caption videos already?
Only partly. LinkedIn can generate auto-captions in limited languages, but you get no control over styling, positioning, or word-by-word animation, and accuracy on names and jargon is hit-or-miss. AnimateCaptions burns captions you fully control directly into the video, so they look right on every device and in every feed.
Why do LinkedIn videos need captions?
Most LinkedIn feed video autoplays on mute. If your point only lands in the audio, silent scrollers miss it and keep scrolling. Burned-in captions hold attention and measurably lift watch-through — captions are the difference between a stopped scroll and a skipped post.
What's the best aspect ratio for LinkedIn video?
Square (1:1) and vertical (9:16) take up the most space in the mobile feed and tend to perform best, while landscape (16:9) suits screen recordings and webinar clips. All three are supported — captions are placed correctly for whichever you choose.
Is it free, and does the export have a watermark?
It's free to start with no credit card. Free exports carry a small AnimateCaptions watermark; paid plans from $7.99/month remove it. We won't claim free is watermark-free — the watermark is small and unobtrusive, and removing it is one cheap upgrade away.
Are the captions burned into the video?
Yes. Captions are rendered directly into the MP4 with Remotion at full resolution, so they display identically everywhere — no separate caption file, no reliance on LinkedIn's player to show them.
Which languages are supported?
36+ languages via Deepgram Nova-3 auto-detect, including English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Russian, Hindi, Japanese, and more.
Can I edit the transcript for names and jargon?
Yes. Every word is editable — click to correct a misheard name, company, or industry term, drag lines to reposition them, and hide words you don't want shown. Per-word control before you export.
Will the exported video upload to LinkedIn?
Yes. The export is a standard MP4 you upload to LinkedIn like any other video. It also works on every other platform — Reels, Shorts, TikTok, X.
