Free, no uploads, no sign-up. Runs 100% in your browser.
How Add Text & Stickers to Video works
Each text and sticker is rendered by the browser into a transparent picture and shown during its time range with the overlay filter. Video work runs in ffmpeg.wasm, the FFmpeg toolkit compiled to WebAssembly (GPL build, loaded as a separate engine file of about 30 MB the first time, then cached).
Input: MP4, MOV, WEBM, MKV, AVI. Output: MP4.
How to use Add Text & Stickers to Video
- Drop a video onto Add Text & Stickers to Video.
- The first run downloads the ffmpeg engine (about 30 MB, once).
- Set your range, format or quality options.
- Process it (progress is shown live), then download.
Tips
- Shorter clips and lower resolutions process much faster.
- Processing speed depends on your CPU; plug in laptops for long jobs.
- Keep the tab in the foreground while encoding.
