timed to the moment

From raw clip to client-ready captioned video.

Use Headroom for the caption-heavy last mile: generate captions, edit words, drag phrases away from faces or UI, switch caption styles, and export MP4 or SRT depending on the client workflow.

  • Edit words inline after transcription
  • Drag phrases and adjust placement
  • Switch styles before final export
  • Export SRT, with word-level SRT available on supported plans

Problem

Client caption edits can eat the whole margin.

Short-form editing often looks simple from the outside, but caption-heavy work creates a lot of small tasks: transcription fixes, line breaks, phrase placement, safe areas, style revisions, and export variations. When a client sends ten short clips, those small tasks become the bottleneck.

Captions are repetitive but important

Every clip needs readable captions, and every mistake is visible to the client.

Revisions are expensive

A small word change can trigger another timing check, style pass, and export.

Different clients need different outputs

Some want a captioned MP4. Others need SRT files to continue in Premiere, CapCut, or another editor.

How Headroom helps

How Headroom helps editors move faster

Headroom is not a replacement for your full editing stack. It is a focused caption and short-form finishing layer that helps you get from raw talking clip to deliverable faster.

Generate and correct captions quickly

Start with AI captions, then edit words directly before export.

Control placement and style

Move phrases, try caption styles, and keep text clear of faces, products, and platform UI.

Export for the workflow

Download a 1080p MP4 with captions or export SRT. Word-level SRT is available on Editor and Studio plans.

Use cases

Built for real short-form workflows

Client reels and shorts

Turn batches of talking-head clips into polished social posts without rebuilding every caption track manually.

Premiere or CapCut handoff

Use SRT exports when you need to keep working in your usual editor or deliver subtitle files to a client.

Agency content teams

Create a consistent caption look across many clips while keeping room for per-video edits.

Turn the next raw clip into a ready-to-post video.

Start with one video, test a caption style, and export when it feels ready.
