Questions
Is the free version really free?
Yes — the editor is free forever: cutting, layers, text, music, colour, manual captions and 1080p exports, with no watermark. The AI does the work for you on Pro: auto-captions, AI Clips, translation, and titles.
Do my videos ever leave my computer?
No. Caption Room runs locally. Only the audio you choose to auto-caption (a Pro feature) is sent to our servers to transcribe — your video files stay on your disk, and you never need your own API key.
How do I pay, and can I cancel?
Pay monthly ($20), annually ($12/mo), or once — a $99 lifetime licence that’s yours forever. Payments run through Stripe’s secure checkout, and subscriptions can be cancelled anytime from your account page.
What's a caption style?
A look for your burned-in subtitles — colour, outline, and the karaoke highlight. Free includes Classic and Minimal; Pro unlocks all 5 (Bubble, Boxed and Neon).
