videolab

Likely getting $125 in leaderboard rewards this week, and I want to pay it forward to supporting creators.

I noticed many videos here don’t have captions. It’s a small edit that makes a big difference for viewers.

Captioning apps on mobile are convenient, but they aren’t free. So I’m thinking I’d like to sponsor a few creators’ caption app subscriptions.

Two questions:

- What are the best mobile apps for captions you’re using?
- What’s a fair way to pick who gets it? (I’m thinking: people who’ve already casted at least one video for Farcaster that isn’t recycled from existing social media, with demonstrated intent to create more.)

Building a little space at /thenextwave and watching everything on /videolab.

best mobile apps that aren't CapCut are Captions (by Captions.ai) or MixCaptions or I honestly just use TikTok to autogenerate captions for me.

Descript is for desktop and best for podcast editors, not for the average creator.
