About Submagic
Submagic is a video-editing tool that adds auto-captions, B-roll, sound effects, and emoji animations to short-form social videos.
It auto-generates captions in multiple languages and automatically inserts B-roll footage, sound effects, and emoji animations, running as a web-based platform with no software to install. It's built specifically for short-form platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.
It fits creators producing vertical short-form clips who want captions and effects handled automatically. It's a poor fit if you need a free option, a native mobile or desktop app, or long-form video workflows — there's no free tier, it's web-only, and its focus is narrowly short-form.
Compared with general video editors, Submagic trades breadth for a short-form-specific feature set built around captions and auto-inserted effects.
