- Animated subtitles refer to any caption style that adds motion to text, including highlights, slides, fades, and word-level effects.
- Dynamic subtitles are a specific VEED feature that uses AI to automatically identify and emphasize the most important words in a video. The dynamic subtitles pop, pulse, or glide in sync with the speech.
