Automatic subtitles for Instagram Reels
Most Reels are watched on mute, so the caption is the video. Upload your Reel, get word-timed captions in Hinglish or an Indian language, choose an animated style and export a vertical video ready to post.
benaam.cc adds automatic, word-timed subtitles to Instagram Reels in Hinglish, Hindi, English and six regional languages. Pick one of 18 animated caption styles, edit any word and export the video with captions burned in. You can start free.

- Animated styles: pop-word, kinetic, highlight, underline
- Hinglish, Hindi and six regional languages
- Export at 1080p, 720p or the original resolution
Why burned-in captions for Reels
Burned-in captions are part of the video itself: you control the font, the colours, the animation and where they sit, and they look the same wherever the Reel is shared, instead of depending on each app’s own caption feature.
Keep captions out of the way of the Reels interface
Captions are placed in the lower part of the frame, away from the like and share buttons on the right and the caption text at the bottom, and you can drag them anywhere. Guide lines help you centre them.
How to add Instagram Reel subtitles in three steps
1. Upload your video (MP4, MOV or WebM).
2. Choose Instagram Reel as the spoken language. The captions are generated automatically, word by word.
3. Fix any word in the editor, choose one of 18 caption styles, and export.
Frequently asked questions
How do I add subtitles to an Instagram Reel?
Upload the video to benaam.cc, choose the spoken language, pick a caption style, then export the video with the captions burned in and upload that file to Instagram.
Does it support Hinglish captions for Reels?
Yes. Hinglish — Hindi in Roman letters — is the main language the product is built around.
Is it free?
Yes, for Hinglish. You can sign up without a card on the free plan: 5 minutes of video a month, 720p export with a watermark and 2 caption styles. All other languages, all 18 styles and watermark-free 1080p export are on the paid plans — see the pricing section of the home page for current details.
Does it export in 4K?
The Original export option keeps your video’s own resolution, including 4K files, though large files take longer to process. Reels are normally uploaded at 1080p, which is also an option.
Can I use the captions on other platforms?
Yes. The same exported video works on YouTube Shorts, Facebook and anywhere vertical video is accepted.
