Why it matters

Most Dutch video gets watched on mute

A 2019 study by Verizon Media and Publicis Media (5,616 U.S. adults surveyed) found that 69% of people watch video with the sound off in public, and 80% said they're more likely to watch a video all the way through when captions are available — completion rate being exactly what short-form platforms reward.

Captions matter for accessibility too: the World Health Organization estimates 430 million people worldwide have disabling hearing loss. For a Dutch-language audience, that's a real slice of potential viewers who simply can't follow an uncaptioned clip.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Does CapGen render Dutch script correctly?

Dutch uses a straightforward Latin alphabet, so captions render cleanly with any of CapGen's built-in styles.

Is this for translating my video, or captioning it in the language it's already in?

Captioning the language it's already in — if your video's spoken language is already in this language, CapGen transcribes and captions it automatically, for free. Translating captions into other languages is a separate paid feature.

Do I need to type anything myself?

No. Upload your video and CapGen transcribes the speech automatically with word-level timing, then lets you fix any word in the free browser editor before you download.

Is it really free?

Yes — automatic captions in the original spoken language are completely free, with no watermark and no signup wall just to try it.

Is there a length or file-size limit?

The free plan covers videos up to 30 minutes long and 2GB in size — enough for the vast majority of social clips, vlogs, and short-form content.

What video formats can I upload?

MP4, MOV, MKV, and WebM all work — export from your phone, camera, or editor and upload as-is.
