Best Ways to Add Chinese Captions to Video in 2025

How to add Chinese captions to video in 3 steps

01
Upload and transcribe
Start by creating a new project and importing your video. Let AI take care of transcription—just choose your primary language to get an auto-generated transcript. Skip the guesswork scribbles; everything is timed perfectly.
02
Convert to Chinese captions
Use the translation tools to turn the transcript into Chinese. The system automatically places the words on-screen in sync with your original audio, so you don’t have to fiddle with line breaks or manual timing.
03
Style and export
Tweak the look of your Chinese captions. Adjust font, size, color, and positioning to match your brand (or your mood). Then export your final video and bask in the knowledge you’ve just made your content more accessible to millions.
