How it works

  1. 1

    Paste a link or upload your video

    Drop in a supported video link or upload a file. Cliphi pulls the audio and reads what is said.

  2. 2

    AI captions every word

    Cliphi transcribes the speech and lays animated captions over the video, synced word by word.

  3. 3

    Style it, then post

    Pick a caption style and tweak the font, color, size, and position, or keep the default. Then download or publish to your socials.

The style sets the feel

Word-pop hits hard for punchy content, a fade reads calmer and more premium, and a highlight keeps one word in focus so the point lands.

Motion timed to the word

Whatever look you pick, the captions stay synced to the exact word, so the movement feels intentional instead of random.

Watchable on mute

Most short-form gets watched with the sound off. On-screen captions are usually the difference between someone watching and someone scrolling past.

Made with Cliphi

Real clips, real reach, published to Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels, and YouTube Shorts.

The captions that move, not the flat ones

Plain static subtitles read as an afterthought. The clips that do well use captions that move, one word lighting up at a time, bouncing or popping in sync with the speech. That motion is part of why they hold attention. Cliphi adds animated captions for you, in styles like TikTok word-pop, smooth fade, bounce, and highlight, timed to the exact word.

Caption styles: word-pop, highlight, fade, and bounce

Styled to match, ready to post

Pick the look that fits your content and tweak the font, color, size, and position, or keep a clean default. The captions sit where they stay readable, and the export is clean with no watermark, so the clip looks native wherever you post it, on TikTok, Reels, or Shorts.

The words come from accurate transcription that handles accents, multiple speakers, and background noise, in around 99 languages. And because Cliphi is a clip tool, you can paste a long video and get a set of animated-captioned clips for TikTok and Reels, not just captions on one upload.

The style you pick changes how a clip feels. Word-pop hits hard and suits punchy, high-energy content, a smooth fade reads calmer and more premium, and a highlight style keeps a single word in focus so the point lands. You can change the font and colors per clip to match the moment, and whatever you choose, the captions stay timed to the exact word so the motion feels intentional rather than random.
