Lyric video maker with automatic transcription
Captions carry short-form music video. song.money transcribes your track automatically at word level, then animates the lyrics in time with the vocal — karaoke-style word highlighting or clean line-by-line — positioned where the platform interface won't cover them.
- Automatic word-level transcription from your own audio
- Karaoke word highlighting or line-by-line display
- Laid out inside TikTok and Instagram safe areas automatically
- Editable transcript with proportional re-timing
Timed to the vocal, not to a guess
Transcription produces per-word timestamps, so highlighting lands on the word as it is sung rather than sliding a block of text across the screen. The caption style — bold center, lower third, or typewriter — is chosen per track to fit the visual treatment.
Instrumental tracks are detected automatically and skip captions instead of printing transcription artifacts over the artwork.
Fixing what the transcript got wrong
Ad-libs, slang and heavy processing all trip up automatic transcription. The dashboard shows the transcript as editable lines; correcting one re-times the words inside it proportionally, and re-rendering costs nothing.
If you already have accurate lyrics, pasting them in is faster than correcting line by line.
