Frequently asked questions
How does Max Editor generate AI subtitles?
Transcription is aligned word by word against the main source, so every subtitle inherits real timings instead of estimated blocks. From there you adjust segmentation, wording and style without re-syncing by hand.
Can I control on-screen style and position?
Yes. Font, size, color, outline and position live in reusable styles, and what you see in preview is what gets burned into the export, with no render surprises.
When is Max Editor NOT the best fit for subtitles?
If you only need a plain SRT file for a short clip and you do not care about styling or editorial review, a simple generator will be faster.
How is transcription cost handled?
Heavy transcription runs locally on your own machine through the Companion, and semantic features use the OpenAI API with BYOK when applicable, with no hidden markup on list pricing.
