What it does
Submagic exists for one job: taking a short vertical video and putting the kind of large animated captions on it that short-form platforms reward. It transcribes, styles, and burns the text into the picture, and the styling presets are the product rather than an afterthought. The free plan allows three videos a month, watermarks them, and caps length at a minute and a half, which is enough to see whether the caption style suits your channel and not enough to publish from. There is an API for automating the same pass.
