Pin stickers, text, and shapes to moving objects in video

Track motion in your videos by sticking text, shapes, and stickers to moving objects. With Kapwing’s motion tracking video editor, you can add movement to your video by pinning text, images, or shapes that follow the motion of objects in the video without downloading or installing motion tracking software.

This pinning feature is perfect for highlighting moving objects in sports, blurring peoples’ faces, and more. With this online motion tracking software, you can also protect people’s privacy in public, track one person in a crowd of people, or add a spark to a moving object. Whatever the case, you don’t need any previous experience editing videos.

Motion track in only a few clicks without having to create an animation frame-by-frame. Unlike Instagram and Snapchat’s pinning feature, Kapwing’s motion tracking feature lets you pin moving objects to a video for videos longer than the 60-second, 3-minute, and 10-minute limit. This is ideal for longer videos like sports recordings, vlogs, and video podcasts. Start tracking moving objects in video in seconds, not hours.

Best online video service ever. And a miracle for deaf people.
[Subtitler] is able to autogenerate subtitles for video in almost any language. I'm deaf (or almost deaf, to be correct) and thanks to Kapwing I'm now able understand and react on videos from my friends :)

By the far the most user friendly software to use.
As a housewife at home looking to start a Youtube channel for fun with absolutely zero editing experience, it was so easy for me to teach myself via their YouTube channel. It takes the tediousness out of editing and encourages creativity. As long as Kapwing is around, I will be using their software.

Love this site.
As a English Foreign Language Teacher, this site helps me to quickly subtitle interesting videos that I can use in class. The students love the videos, and the subtitles really help them to learn new vocabulary as well as better understand and follow the video.

Excellent subtitling features
[It] works perfectly for me. Have been using Kapwing for a year or so, and their automatic subtitle tool gets better and better every week, it's rare that I have to correct a word. Keep up the good work!
