Save your Reel or TikTok clip as an MP4 (vertical format) or copy the shareable link if it’s already uploaded. - Upload or paste the link into Capsai
In the Capsai dashboard, click “Upload Video” or “Paste URL.” Select Hinglish from the language dropdown and click “Generate Subtitles.” - Review and refine the transcript
Use the in-browser editor to correct any misheard words, adjust punctuation, and ensure code-switching reads naturally (for example, “Yeh trick try karo and let me know”). - Customize subtitle styling for vertical video
Choose a readable font size and color, and position captions away from the edges. Add a semi-transparent background or outline so text stands out on mobile screens. - Split long lines and time for readability
Keep each subtitle to two short lines (max 25 characters per line) and display them for at least 1.5 seconds per line. This ensures viewers can read quickly as they scroll. - Export burned-in video or SRT file
For Reels and TikTok, burning captions into the video guarantees they display correctly. If you prefer editable captions, download the SRT and import it into your editing app. - Upload to Instagram Reels or TikTok
• For Reels: Upload the burned-in video, or use the SRT in a video editor before posting.
• For TikTok: Upload the video file with embedded text, or enable Auto Captions in the app and replace them with your clean burned-in version. - Add a call-to-action in on-screen text
Use a final subtitle like “Tap to save this tip” or “Comment your favorite hack” to boost engagement even when sound is off. - Test on multiple devices and monitor performance
Preview your Reel or TikTok on iOS and Android to confirm timing and legibility. Check analytics for watch-through rate and engagement, then tweak your subtitle style or timing for future videos.
By following these steps, you’ll deliver clear, engaging Hinglish captions that capture viewers’ attention and keep them watching, even on mute.
