Why burn subtitles into video?
Many platforms and devices don't support external subtitle tracks. Burning subtitles in ensures your captions always appear: on Discord, WhatsApp, Instagram Reels, TikTok, Twitter, and Facebook. It also makes your content accessible without the viewer needing to enable subtitles manually.
