Reach broader audiences by adding Japanese captions to any video. It’s quick, accurate, and easy on the eyes.
Get started
These companies use Descript. Not bad!
01
Upload your video and transcribe
Open a new project and bring in any video format you’d like—MP4, MOV, whatever. Once it’s uploaded, you’ll get an automatic transcript. If you already have Japanese text or subtitles, you can import them. If not, run a translation of your existing transcript, or simply type your own Japanese captions line by line.
02
Position and style your Japanese captions
Select where the captions will appear and pick a style. You can move them around the video, change the font or background color, and adjust the size. No fluff required—just make sure the text is visible and matches your brand vibe (or doesn’t, if edginess is your thing).
03
Preview and export
Press play to review your captions. Make sure they align with the spoken words and that any translations are accurate. When you’re satisfied, export the video or just the separate captions file (SRT or VTT). Your video now flaunts polished Japanese captions, ready to go.

Expand your viewership
Japanese captions tap into a new market—maybe it’s about time your masterpiece reached fans in Tokyo, Osaka, or beyond.

Foster inclusivity
Captions ensure everyone enjoys your video, even viewers who can’t or don’t want audio. It’s better for your brand and your conscience.

Highlight your professionalism
When you add Japanese captions to video, you show you’re serious about accessibility—plus, you might just look cooler doing it.
Sure, the main attraction is Japanese captions, but there’s plenty more you can tweak.
Time-coded editing
Sync every line of text automatically so you never have to drag timestamps around like you’re herding cats.
Instant translations
Generate translations for 20+ languages in your transcript, letting you produce multilingual content without losing your mind.
Filler word removal
Cut out awkward 'um's, 'uh's, or silence from both the video and your captions in one quick swoop.
Shareable exports
One-click publishing lets you send your content (captions and all) to YouTube or save it for your next big platform of choice.
