Frequently asked questions
How does the text-behind effect work?
The tool uses an AI model to separate the subject (person or object) from the background for each frame. It then renders three layers: the original background, your text, and the extracted foreground on top — making the text appear behind the subject.
Does this work on any video?
It works best with videos that have a clear subject (person, animal, object) against a distinct background. Complex scenes with multiple overlapping subjects may produce less clean results.
What browser do I need?
This tool requires WebGPU support for AI processing. Use Chrome 113+ or Edge 113+ for the best experience.
