The sound-off reality
A large share of social video is watched with the sound off. Without captions, those viewers get nothing and scroll on. With captions, they can follow along — and stay.
Word-by-word (kinetic) captions do even better: the motion holds the eye and paces the message.
How to add them
In DigitalIncomeRoute you can add captions to any clip and style them in a click — size, colour, background pill, and the word-pop animation. They're rendered into the exported MP4, so they show on every platform.
Style tips
High contrast, a solid or semi-solid background behind the text, and a size big enough to read on a phone. Keep lines short — one thought at a time.
Frequently asked questions
Are captions burned into the video?
Yes — they render into the MP4, so no separate subtitle file is needed.
Do animated captions really help?
They tend to lift watch time by keeping sound-off viewers engaged and pacing the message.
Can I match my brand?
Yes — font size, weight, colour and background are all adjustable.
