Filipino captions in short

Crayo transcribes Filipino speech and adds animated captions to short clips from podcasts, streams and interviews. It is for creators in the Philippines and the overseas Filipino community who post Tagalog and Taglish clips to TikTok, Facebook Reels and YouTube Shorts.

The Philippines is one of the heaviest social video markets on earth, with enormous TikTok, Facebook and YouTube usage and a huge overseas community that keeps up with home through short clips. Filipino podcasts, vlog interviews and Facebook Live streams run for hours, and clippers cut them into vertical pieces that reach viewers from Manila to Dubai to Los Angeles.

Filipino is written in the Latin alphabet and is usually spoken as Taglish, a continuous mix of Tagalog and English within the same sentence. Crayo transcribes the speech as Filipino when selected, and English words in the mix generally come through as English, which is how viewers expect to read them. Regional words from Cebuano or Ilocano speakers may need an edit in the caption list.

A practical tip: Filipino conversations are fast and emotional, which is exactly what performs in short form, so pick a caption style with a strong highlight on the active word and keep two to four words on screen. Preview the clip to make sure the captions keep pace with the speaker.
