What is a video text remover?

A video text remover is an AI editing tool that erases hardcoded subtitles, captions, labels, or other on-screen text from a video. Instead of cropping the frame or covering the text with a blur, you draw a rectangle around the unwanted text, and the tool reconstructs the pixels behind it while keeping the surrounding scene, motion, lighting, and audio.

Can I remove hardcoded subtitles from a video online?

Yes. Upload a short MP4, MOV, or WebM video, draw one rectangle around the subtitle area, review the credit estimate, and submit. The result is available for preview and download through a short-lived signed link.

Does this tool remove text automatically?

No. It uses a manual rectangle-based workflow rather than automatic OCR. You select exactly where the text appears, and the tool removes the pixels inside that region. This gives you control while avoiding the uncertainty of automatic detection.

What formats and lengths are supported?

The first version accepts MP4, MOV, and WebM videos between 3 and 60 seconds, no larger than 200 MB, and no higher than 1080p. One video is processed per submission.

How much does it cost?

Cost is calculated from the authoritative video duration using a server-configured credits-per-minute rate. The estimate is shown before submission, and the same duration is used for the final charge.

Can I remove text from a moving background?

It is possible, but the quality depends on the background. A small text region over a stable background usually repairs cleanly. Text over fast motion, heavy blur, or complex patterns may show artifacts and can require a second attempt with a tighter or better-placed rectangle.

Can I remove multiple text areas at once?

Not in this first release. Each task supports one rectangular selection. For multiple areas, you can run separate edits and download each result.

How is this different from Video Object Remover?

Video Text Remover is rectangle-based and focused on hard subtitles and on-screen text. Video Object Remover is prompt-guided and designed for broader object removal. Choose the rectangle tool when you know exactly where the text is and want precise area control.

Can I download the processed video?

Yes. Once the task succeeds, you can preview and download the result from the tool. Access uses a short-lived signed URL, so save your file before the link and retention window expire.

Is my uploaded video safe?

Processing requires sharing the video with the configured service providers. Review the Privacy Policy before uploading, and do not upload media you are not authorized to share.

Remove a Hardcoded Subtitle Bar

The most common use for a video text remover is cleaning a burned-in subtitle strip from the bottom of a clip. Instead of cropping the frame or covering the text with a blur, the selected region is inpainted while the rest of the shot, motion, lighting, and audio remain intact. This works best when the subtitle is a compact horizontal band and the background underneath is not completely hidden for the full duration. Drag the divider to see the subtitle disappear while the speaker and camera movement stay unchanged.

Erase a Centered Text Overlay

Promotional text, captions, or a lower-third graphic can sit in the middle of a video rather than along the edges. A rectangle-based video text remover gives you precise control over where the repair should happen, so you can target only the overlay without asking a prompt-based editor to guess which element you mean. For best results, keep the rectangle fully around the text while leaving a small margin for anti-aliasing and motion blur. The comparison shows how the center overlay is removed without deleting the product or the background detail.

Clean Text over a Moving Background

Text sitting over a moving background is harder than text over a flat surface, but the video text remover is designed to reconstruct the missing pixels across the whole selected region and across time. Keep the rectangle large enough to cover the text and any small halo around it, but compact enough that the model does not have to invent a large part of the frame. In this example, the label moves with the camera while the surrounding street scene continues naturally. Drag the slider and press play to confirm the background stays coherent through the repair.
