## How to choose subtitles & captions software

1. Match tool to workflowPodcast / long-form transcription: Descript, Rev. Short-form social captions with animation: Submagic, Captions, Veed. In-product subtitles for streaming video: AWS Transcribe, Mux, Vimeo. Different jobs, different specialists.
2. Audit language and accent qualityAI captioning accuracy degrades on non-English languages, technical terms, and strong accents. Test on your actual content with your speakers; benchmarks don't predict your results.
3. Plan for human reviewEven best AI captions need review for client-facing or compliance use. Tools with strong editor UX (Descript, Rev) reduce review time vs raw export workflows.
