If you've ever had to record voiceovers for videos, you know the struggle. Reading long scripts, recording retakes, and trying to sound just right is time-consuming. For creators, educators, and businesses, the process of adding a voice to captions or scripts can feel like a chore—until now.
CapCut’s AI Voice Generator makes voiceovers automatic, natural-sounding, and efficient. Whether you’re making explainers, product demos, book summaries, or reels, this tool reads your captions or full scripts out loud using lifelike AI voices. You can choose the tone, accent, and speed, then let CapCut do the talking. In this article, you’ll learn how to auto-read captions and scripts using the CapCut Voice Generator, why this feature is a game-changer, and how to integrate it into your content process in simple steps.
CapCut isn’t just a video editor—it’s packed with AI tools, such as Text to Speech AI, that make storytelling easier. Here’s what makes its text-to-voice feature stand out:
You don’t need a studio mic or soundproof room. Just type your text, and the AI handles the rest with professional-grade clarity.
CapCut offers a wide selection of voices with different genders, languages, and emotional tones. Whether you want a formal narrator or a friendly voice for TikTok, there’s a match for every style.
You can type out your captions, copy-paste a script, or sync voiceovers with auto-subtitles generated by CapCut. The flexibility allows creators at all skill levels to work smarter, not harder.
Start by opening CapCut Desktop Video Editor (Windows or macOS). Either import a video or create a new project from scratch. If you already have a video with subtitles or captions, go to "Text" → "Auto Captions" to generate them automatically. If you’re starting with a written script, create a new text box under "Text" → "Add Text" and paste your script there. CapCut supports long-form scripts. You can break them into segments to keep the pacing natural.
Now that your captions or script are in place, it’s time to convert them to voice. Go to "Text to speech". Choose a voice style from the dropdown menu (male/female, accents, tone). Adjust speed and pitch if needed.
Once ready, hit "Generate speech". The voice will sync automatically with your text in the timeline. Preview multiple voices to find the one that best matches your brand tone or character personality.
The AI-generated voice will now appear as an audio track in your timeline. Drag it to line up with visuals. You can also trim unnecessary silence. Add background music from CapCut’s royalty-free audio library: layer sound effects, transitions, or visuals to match the voiceover tone. Then you can try AI Video Upscaler for the best results.
When satisfied, hit "Export" to render your final video. Now you have a fully narrated clip, without ever recording your voice.
Here are some features in CapCut that enhance the voice generator even further:
