Dutch Auto Captions

Dutch captions in short

Crayo transcribes Dutch speech and adds animated captions to short clips from podcasts, streams and interviews. It is for creators in the Netherlands and Flanders who post captioned clips to TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts.

Dutch-language short-form content serves the Netherlands and Flemish Belgium, two of the most TikTok-active markets in Europe, and Dutch podcasts routinely top the charts with multi-hour interview episodes. YouTube is the home of Dutch long-form talk, so clipping those episodes into vertical captioned cuts is a well-worn path for Dutch clippers.

Dutch is written in the Latin alphabet with few diacritics but very long compound nouns and a lot of English borrowed into everyday speech. Flemish and Netherlands Dutch are transcribed as the same language, with occasional regional vocabulary that may need an edit. Crayo transcribes the speech as Dutch when selected, and English words inside Dutch sentences generally come through as English.

A practical tip: long Dutch compounds do not break nicely across lines, so choose a caption style that shows one to three words at a time rather than a full sentence, and preview any clip with a long compound to make sure it fits inside the safe area on a phone.
