Transcript: Here are some tips based on what we've seen and things that need to be clarified when using our platform. Voxally has captions. We recommend turning off the burn-in captions. There are a few reasons for that. The first reason is that once you use our captioning feature, you are unable to edit any potential errors. Our captions are produced using AI, therefore any accents or non-standard vocabulary may be easily misunderstood. For instance, Deaf with a capital D. When the captions are burned in, you're unable to edit that. Additionally, various platforms like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, or YouTube all have captions for spoken audio. That means that once you post the audio from our app to those platforms and turn the captions on, there are a few additional benefits. You can move the captions. You can change the color or change the font, make them bigger or smaller. You can also fix any errors that may have occurred and clean up the AI-generated transcript. Not to mention, it will help with your search engine optimization, the SEO algorithm. If you choose the burn-in captions, it isn't recognized or caught by the SEO, so using off-platform transcript helps aid in that search. There's your tip for the day.
