Versely doesn't have a separate 'title card' tool — it's a specific, deliberate use of add_video_captions: a single centered line of text with a background block behind it, positioned to read as an intro card rather than a caption. The tool's own description explicitly lists 'headline' and 'branded label' among its supported use cases.
For chapter markers or section titles partway through a longer video, the same tool works — just reposition and re-word for each new section.

Burn a fixed TEXT OVERLAY onto a standalone video — a hook line, headline, badge, CTA, quote or branded label that you supply. This is NOT a subtitle tool: it does not transcribe speech. For spoken-word subtitles use add_veed_captions. Call list_caption_fonts first when the user wants a specific font.
What to tell the agent
Versely's agent maps this plain-English request directly onto add_video_captions. You don't need to know the parameter names — just describe what you want.
“Add a centered title card that reads 'Chapter One' with a dark background block, for the first 3 seconds of this video.”
How it works
1. Write the title text
Keep it short — a title card reads best as a few words, not a full sentence.
2. Set position to center
position 'center' gives the classic title-card placement.
3. Add a background block
The background parameter gives the text a solid block behind it, so it reads clearly over any footage.
4. Choose the font
Call list_caption_fonts first if you want a specific display typeface for the title rather than the default.
What it costs
Billed as a standard editor operation, same pricing category as any add_video_captions render.
The formula behind that number: What does editing a video cost if I keep changing it? — charges per finished export, so iteration is free and the count is the whole bill.
Limits & things to know
- There's no dedicated animated title-card template — this is a static text-and-background composite, not a motion-graphics intro.
- For a title card that appears and disappears at a specific timestamp mid-video (a chapter marker), pair position/timing guidance with add_timestamped_captions instead if you need several different titles through the video.
Who uses this
- Video intros and cold-open title cards
- Chapter markers in a longer edit
- Branded name-card overlays at the start of a UGC ad
Frequently asked questions
Is there a dedicated title card tool?+
Not a separate one — it's add_video_captions used deliberately: centered text with a background block. The tool's own description lists headline and branded-label use cases explicitly.
Can I add multiple title cards through a longer video?+
For several different titles appearing at different timestamps (like chapter markers), use add_timestamped_captions instead, which is built for multiple timed lines.
