How to add captions to pinterest video
- 1
Upload your Pinterest video
Drag your video file onto the CentClip upload area or click to browse. CentClip accepts MP4 and MOV formats - the standard exports from phones, screen recorders, and editing apps used for Pinterest content. Your first 5 minutes are free with no account required, so you can test the full workflow before spending any credits.

Review and edit the auto-generated captions
CentClip transcribes your audio and shows the captions in a side-by-side editor next to your video. Click any line to correct a word, adjust timing, or split a block - particularly useful for fast-paced recipe or tutorial videos where each step needs its own caption beat. A quick review pass takes a minute or two and ensures every caption reads naturally before you export.

Download your captioned video or subtitle file
Choose to burn captions directly into the video as an MP4 ready to upload to Pinterest, or download an SRT or VTT file if you prefer a separate subtitle track. A plain text transcript is available too. You pay only for the minutes you process - no subscription and no minimum purchase.
Why choose CentClip for Pinterest?
Pinterest videos autoplay silently - captions keep viewers following your steps
Pinterest feeds scroll fast and most videos play without sound until a viewer actively taps to unmute. For DIY tutorials, recipes, and how-to content, losing audio means losing the narration that makes your video worth watching. Burned-in captions from CentClip keep every instruction visible in the feed so viewers can follow each step without sound - which also means they watch longer before swiping away to the next Pin.
Pay per minute fits the burst-and-pause rhythm of Pinterest creators
Pinterest creators often publish in batches - several Idea Pins one week, nothing for two or three weeks after. A monthly captioning subscription charges you during the quiet stretches, which rarely makes financial sense at lower posting volumes. CentClip charges 5 cents per minute with no monthly fee and credits that never reset or expire. Caption a 2-minute recipe Pin for 10 cents, then come back whenever your next batch is ready without paying for idle time.
50+ language support reaches Pinterest's global discovery audience
Pinterest surfaces content to hundreds of millions of monthly users across every major market, and a significant share of that audience discovers content in languages other than English. CentClip supports over 50 languages at the same 5-cent-per-minute rate - there is no premium for non-English transcription. Whether you post DIY content in Spanish, cooking videos in French, or home decor clips in Portuguese, accurate native-language captions improve engagement for viewers reading in their first language.
FAQ
How accurate are CentClip captions for Pinterest video?
CentClip uses a high-accuracy transcription engine that performs well on the clear speech typical of tutorial and lifestyle videos. Videos with heavy background music or significant ambient noise may need a few manual edits in the built-in caption editor before you export.
Is there a free trial for adding captions to Pinterest video?
Yes - your first 5 minutes are free with no account or credit card required. After that, captions cost 5 cents per minute with no subscription and no minimum purchase.
What video formats does CentClip accept for Pinterest captioning?
CentClip accepts MP4, MOV, and other standard video formats. MP4 is the format most phones and editing apps export and aligns directly with Pinterest's video upload requirements. Output options include an MP4 with burned-in captions, SRT, VTT, and a plain text transcript.
Do CentClip credits expire if I stop posting for a while?
No. CentClip credits never expire - buy them when you need them and use them on your own schedule. There is no billing cycle, no subscription to cancel, and no risk of losing credits you have already paid for.
