Generating captions is the fast part. Every tool does it. Then you read them back.
The names are misspelled. Two speakers are merged into one block. A line runs too long for the safe area. The filler words are all still there. A technical term got mangled, again. So you sit there fixing captions word by word, in a panel that was barely built for it.
The time was never in the transcription. It was in everything after.
Less to fix,
because the transcript is right the first time.
Premiere Assistant uses Cutback's own speech-to-text engine, tuned for real video: frame-level accuracy, multiple speakers, technical vocabulary, and accents. More accuracy up front means fewer corrections later.
A real caption editor,
not a text box.
This is where editors actually spend their time, so this is what we built around. Names and terms library, split by word count, add a line break, or hide a caption entirely. Reassign a speaker in a click.
You read the captions the way your viewer will, and you edit them right there. No scrubbing the timeline to find the block you need to fix.
Built for more than one person on screen.
Interviews, podcasts, panels, multicam shoots: handled. It separates speakers, color-codes them in the transcript, and can label captions with speaker names or split captions onto separate tracks by speaker. Long-form, multi-person content is the hard case, and it is the one Premiere Assistant is designed for.
The cleanup pass, automated.
Hide filler words, repeated words, and profanity in one panel. Run a spell check across the whole sequence. Set the rules captions should follow: max length per line by letter or word count, where lines break on punctuation, single or multi-line, lettercase, and how silent sections are handled.
Reach a wider audience without leaving Premiere
Translate your captions into another language in a couple of clicks and apply them straight to the sequence. No browser roundtrip, no separate service, no re-importing files. Caption once, then open the same content up to viewers in another language.
Caption it the way each platform needs it.
Generate standard Premiere captions or customized animated captions as graphic clips directly on your sequence. Export a clean transcript, an SRT for YouTube, social, and accessibility, or YouTube chapter titles complete with timecodes, summaries, and speaker names.
