About this tool
Submagic focuses on short-form video for social platforms. It generates styled, animated captions designed to keep viewers watching, in 123 languages according to the company, and its Magic Clips feature extracts key moments from a long video and cuts them into multiple shorts ready for posting.
One-click editing handles routine work such as cutting, trimming and preparing clips for publication, so creators and businesses can publish more often.
