CaptionX is a Premiere Pro plugin that generates automatic captions in 100 languages — styled, timed, and export-ready without leaving your edit.
Premiere Pro's built-in caption tools require manual effort for most languages and don't produce styled subtitle output. CaptionX handles transcription, line-breaking, and styling in one step, then exports clean SRT or burned-in subtitles directly from your timeline.

Export-ready SRT
Export a clean SRT alongside your video or burn captions in — whatever your delivery format requires.

Premiere Pro's built-in speech-to-text is limited for many languages and outputs plain, unstyled captions. CaptionX generates captions in 100 languages — including Spanish, Mandarin, Arabic, Hindi, and Swahili — with styling applied automatically.
Yes. After captions are generated you can export a clean SRT alongside your video, or burn the captions directly into the footage — whichever your delivery format requires. The SRT also works for YouTube, Vimeo, and any platform that accepts subtitle files.
No. CaptionX runs as an extension panel inside Adobe Premiere Pro, so transcription, line-breaking, styling, and export all happen in your timeline. There's no external upload, no separate web tool, and no re-importing subtitle files.
