How tools work

A tool is a small app you describe in plain words. Try this one here, then keep it on your Fuser canvas and connect it to the rest of your work.

Ways to use this tool

Create clear text overlays for different moments in a video by changing the caption and display controls.

Add an opening title

Enter a title and place it at the top, middle, or bottom of your video.

Create speaker labels

Add a person’s name or role as a caption and position it where it fits the frame.

Add a call to action

Overlay a short message on a video and use a contrasting color or background box.

Make captions easier to read

Increase the text size and turn on the outline to give the caption more visual separation.

Apply a branded color

Choose white, black, yellow, or red for the text overlay to match the video’s visual style.

Add a persistent video label

Use a short caption as a label, then place it at the top or bottom of the video.
