What This Workflow Does
What it automates: This clipping agent monitors YouTube, extracts clips, converts to vertical, generates and styles captions, and publishes.
Who it's for: Creators and media teams who prioritize accessibility and silent-viewing performance across TikTok, Reels, and Shorts.
When to use it: Whenever caption quality and vertical formatting are the primary publishing requirements.
How It Works
Step 1: New YouTube Video — Automatic Trigger
Connect your channel. Overlap starts the workflow as soon as a new qualifying video is published.
Step 2: Find Clips — Best Moments Extracted
AI identifies your highest-performing clip candidates. Set length and add custom prompts to focus on specific content types.
Step 3: Convert to Vertical — 9:16 Reframing
Content-aware reframing keeps subjects in frame in the vertical format, with support for single and multi-speaker layouts.
Step 4: Add Subtitles — Full Caption Control
Captions are generated from the video's transcript and fully customizable:
Position (Y axis)
Font size and style
Max characters per line
Max lines visible at once
Per-speaker styling for interview content
Subtitle style preset
Step 5: Post to Social — Direct Publishing
Captioned vertical clips are published to your connected accounts.
Who's Is This For?
Accessibility-focused creators: Burned-in captions ensure your content is watchable for viewers with hearing impairments, on mute, or in noisy environments.
Short-form social publishers: Research consistently shows captioned clips outperform uncaptioned clips in watch time and shares on TikTok and Reels.
FAQ's
Can I style captions differently for different speakers?
Yes. The Add Subtitles node supports per-speaker styling, so you can assign different caption styles to each speaker in interview or co-hosted content.
Are captions burned into the video or added as a subtitle track?
Captions are burned directly into the video file, so they display on every platform regardless of whether the viewer has subtitles enabled.
