Signature look
Instrument Phrase
A short OnnOff intro in Instrument Phrase - who we are, what Capten is, and who it’s for. Hero word lands, support follows, then the next line.

How it works
Upload once. Caption like an editor.
01
Drop a Reel
Upload MP4 or MOV. Capten pulls audio and listens for Hinglish the way you speak it - not textbook Hindi.
02
Shape every word
Fix timing, pick a look like Instrument Phrase, nudge the hero word, save it as your brand kit.
03
Burn & ship
Export an MP4 with captions baked in - or send the video on WhatsApp and get the captioned clip back.
Editor
Built for finishing, not fighting the UI.
Timeline on the left. Preview in the middle. Style and kits on the right. Capten feels closer to a cut tool than a subtitle form.
Word-level timeline
Drag, trim, and retime captions the same way you scrub a Reel - not a subtitle spreadsheet.
What you see is what burns
Preview uses the same styling path as export, so Instrument Phrase doesn’t “flatten” on download.
Brand kits that stick
Save once. Reuse across videos and clients - fonts, lockup, colors, motion included.
Send a video. Get captions back.
Creators message your Capten number, pick a brand kit, and receive a burned MP4 - without opening the dashboard. Ideal when you’re mid-shoot and just need the clip captioned.
