Synthesia Adds Captioning to Video Creation Tools

What happened

Synthesia has integrated an automatic captioning feature into its video creation tools. This allows users to generate captions that match the timing and spoken words in their videos.

The captions are created based on the audio content of the video and are displayed alongside the visual elements. Users can also edit or customize the captions after they are generated.

Why it matters

The addition of captioning improves the accessibility of video content, making it more inclusive for viewers who are deaf or hard of hearing. It also supports users who prefer to watch videos without sound.

Key details

The captioning process is part of Synthesia's broader video production capabilities, which include tools for creating and editing video content. The captions are available in multiple languages, depending on the user's settings.

The captions are aligned with the video's timing and spoken words, ensuring accurate synchronization with the audio. This feature is particularly useful for educational and corporate video content.
