Kannada Auto Captions

Kannada captions in short

Crayo transcribes Kannada speech and adds animated captions to short clips from podcasts, interviews and streams. It is for Kannada creators in Karnataka who post captioned vertical clips to YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels.

Kannada content centres on Bengaluru and the rest of Karnataka, where film interview channels, comedy podcasts, tech talk and devotional shows produce long recordings. YouTube Shorts leads for Kannada audiences, with Instagram Reels close behind, and clips with Kannada captions perform noticeably better with viewers who scroll with the sound off.

Kannada is written in its own rounded abugida script, where vowel signs attach to consonants and consonant clusters form stacked conjuncts. Speakers mix in English freely, especially in Bengaluru tech and startup conversations, and those words usually come through in Latin letters. Crayo transcribes the speech as Kannada when selected; names and English terms are the lines to check in the caption list.

A practical tip: Kannada glyphs are wide and round, so use a larger text size with two or three words per caption, and preview the style on the clip before export because the fonts differ across the 32 styles and conjunct forms need a clean rendering to stay readable.
