Let AI avatars star in your posts

Add a personal touch to your videos with AI Avatars. No filming required — simply choose a character, upload your script, and let the AI generate your video for you. 

If you want to be the face of your brand, use AI Twin instead of casting one of our premade avatars. Just film yourself reading a short script, and the platform will capture your facial expressions and tone of voice. Now, you’ll be camera ready at any time.

Connect with viewers worldwide

To expand your reach, try translating your posts into multiple languages. Captions has two features that make this easier: Lipdub Playground and Auto Subtitle Generator

After importing a video, tell the AI tool which language you’d like your dialogue translated into. Lipdub will match your dubbed audio to your mouth movements, so it looks like you’re speaking a new language. 

Then, pair this voiceover with AI-generated subtitles so viewers can easily follow along. With these tools, you can create a global fanbase in no time.

Save time with repurposed footage

If you usually make long-form videos and want to break into short-form content creation, use AI to speed up the process. Our AI Shorts tool reviews your footage and automatically pulls out viral-worthy clips. 

Use this feature to post highlights from your Twitch channel or share snippets of your latest YouTube essay. Post these videos across your social media channels to connect with a bigger audience. In no time, you’ll have more views on your longer content and increase your following.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ

How do you make a social media video?

Whether you’re trying to become an influencer or just creating posts for fun, creating a script is the first step to making a social media video. Depending on your style, this can be a loose outline of your idea or describe what you’ll say word-for-word. 

Then, record your content and upload it to a video maker like Captions. Add subtitles, music, and effects to polish your footage. Once you're happy, export and share it on your favorite social media platforms.

What type of video content gets the most views and clicks on social media?

The most engaging social media videos are usually short and easy to follow. Popular types of content include tutorials, behind-the-scenes footage, or current trends. 

However, creating content about your interests is the best way to go viral. When you film things you’re passionate about, viewers can feel that excitement and will want to watch your videos.

Which social media platform is best for videos?

Most social media platforms let you post videos — but the best depends on your personal preference. For instance, TikTok and Instagram are great options if you make short, fun videos. However, YouTube is ideal for longer videos, like vlogs or tutorials. It’s all about finding the platform that fits your goals.

What’s the best video maker for social media?

Captions is one of the best video makers, whether you’re a seasoned UGC creator or just getting started. Regardless of your skill level, our platform lets you quickly create engaging, customized videos.

  • Film — Select a digital creator and give them the AI-generated script to read.
  • Edit — Have AI review your footage and apply changes that match your chosen style.

Can AI videos get monetized?
