AutoSubbed

AutoSubbed is a SaaS I built to stop wasting time adding subtitles to videos manually. Upload a video and it comes back with the subtitles already burned in.

The Problem

Adding subtitles to a video is painful. Most people either pay for a full video editor just to use the subtitle feature, or spend time learning a complex tool they barely need. On top of that, you still have to sync the text manually.

I got tired of that. I wanted a tool where you drop a video, the AI handles the transcription, and the subtitles come out burned in and ready to share. No editor, no timeline, no learning curve.

Subtitle Customization

You can control the font, size, color, stroke, positioning, and animation effects like word-by-word pop-in or fade. The tool also handles multi-language content including CJK character sets, which most similar tools skip.

Stack & Business Model

AutoSubbed runs on four tiers: Free trial, Starter ($5/mo), Pro ($9/mo), and Business ($18/mo), with payments handled through Creem.io. Auth is JWT and Google OAuth.

Backend is FastAPI (Python 3.11) with async SQLAlchemy, PostgreSQL, Celery and Redis, deployed on Railway. Frontend is Next.js 14, TypeScript, shadcn/ui and Tailwind CSS v4, deployed on Vercel.

Current Status

The platform is live at autosubbed.com. I'm working on processing speed, more animation presets, and the free-trial conversion flow.
