Provide editable transcripts automatically

Wistia automatically transcribes every video you upload and lets you drive from there. You or your users can edit the transcript and control where, how, and in what language it’s displayed with our custom HTML component.

Show off collections of videos

With just a snippet of code, you can turn a collection of videos into a cohesive gallery. Display a video series on its own customizable gallery page, or embed a gallery on an existing page with other content. You can even set videos to autoplay, so viewers can watch video after video without lifting a finger.
