CaptionKit - the ultimate app for creating captions for your videos quickly and effortlessly. With CaptionKit, you can easily add subtitles to any video in just a few steps.
Hello, dear Product Hunters!
👋 My name is Viktor Seraleev, and I’m a indie mobile developer. Today, I want to share some exciting news about my latest app!
🎯 85% of people watch videos without sound, and simply adding captions can boost your social media reach. That’s why I created CaptionKit - a powerful AI-driven app for generating captions automatically.
💪 This is my third time starting from scratch. The first time, I sold an app for $410,000. The second time, I was making $3,000 a day, but then Apple shut down my account. I filed a lawsuit and began rebuilding.
🚀 CaptionKit is a project I started 4 years ago, but only now have I brought it to launch - and it turned out awesome! With CaptionKit, you can easily create captions for your videos.
Here are the app’s key features:
- 17+ ready-made templates
- Own video rendering technology
- AI-powered captions in just seconds
- Pre-made text styles
- Over 100 fonts
- Customizable style settings
- Translation of captions into 100+ languages
- The ability to create your own caption style
I’d love your support! It’s tough to come back and start all over again. Looking forward to your feedback 👉 https://captionkit.app
P.S. This is first version. Coming in the next 3 weeks:
- Merge and split captions with ease
- Manually adjust word duration
- Auto-enhance audio: remove noise and echo
- Control audio volume
- Add stickers, GIFs, and text
@okhlopkov Hi, Daniil! Great comment! In the first version, our main advantage is the font selection. We developed many of the fonts by hand and ensured support for most Eastern European languages. We added characters that CapCut and other competitors only support in the English version of their fonts. Please bear with us, as this is our first app version. We’ll be rolling out many exciting new animations and effects soon, which you won’t find in other apps

💡 Bright idea
Impressive. Nowadays products for content creator are easier to find PMF, your app looks promising. Any plan for a web/PC version? As creators often work in desktop environments.
@hackerqed Hi, thanks for your support! Honestly, this is the first request for a web version - I hadn’t thought about it before. Thanks for the great idea!
@viktor_surkov Hi, great question. CaptionKit is definitely among the top when it comes to speed and accuracy. I’ve also put a lot of focus on fonts. It really bothered me that smaller languages were often overlooked, so we actually developed many of the fonts from scratch.

Hey Viktor! Captions are key not only for building engagement but also because it's a part of a video style that many audience are looking for. Glad to see you helping on this and wish you all the best! Cheers!
@german_merlo1 Hey, German! Thanks so much for your support and insight! I completely agree - captions are crucial for both engagement and video style. I’m thrilled to be working on this and appreciate your well wishes. Cheers!
Congrats on the launch @seraleev! CaptionKit is a must-have tool for any content creator aiming to boost engagement and reach. The variety of templates and customization options are really impressive. I'm curious, do you have any plans to integrate with popular editing software like Adobe Premiere or Final Cut Pro in the future?

Hi, thanks for the great comment! I’d like to enhance the iPhone app, release an Android version, and launch a web service for quick captions creation. I have experience in these areas.
