Why add text in the browser?
A browser overlay is best for quick labels, titles, and simple captions when you do not need a full timeline editor.

Add text to video use cases
When to add text before sharing
Add text to clarify product demos, mark a location, introduce a clip, or make a silent social video understandable at a glance.
Browser processing vs upload-based tools
Upload editors are useful for complex projects. For one static overlay, a local browser export is faster and more private.

FAQ
Can I change the font?
MVP ships one curated font, Inter. The three style presets cover most use cases: clean, bold, and caption-on-background.
Will my text be rasterized?
Yes. We burn the text into the video using ffmpeg drawtext, so the result plays anywhere.
Is my video uploaded anywhere?
No. The file is processed locally in your browser using WebAssembly. Nothing leaves your device.
Which file formats are supported?
MP4, MOV, and WEBM up to 500 MB on desktop and 150 MB on mobile.
Is there a watermark?
No. The exported video is identical to your file with the requested change applied.
