Build recognition and trust with custom-branded YouTube video outros

While a video intro sets the tone for your content by grabbing viewers’ attention, your outro is the final touch that ties your video together. Branding your outros helps viewers recognize your channel and builds trust. ​​When your outros feel consistent, viewers are more likely to remember you and subscribe. 

With Captions’ outro maker, you can add your logo, custom colors, and a watermark to every YouTube end screen, so your audience knows exactly who you are. You can even reuse these clips across social media channels, helping audiences find you on any platform.

No need for complex editing — just drag, drop, and customize. 

It’s a seamless way to guide viewers from one video to the next, driving more clicks and longer watch times. Whether you’re sharing how-tos, vlogs, or product reviews, your closing scene encourages viewers to keep coming back.

Translate your posts

Captions’ Lipdub tool translates your audio into multiple languages so that you can connect with viewers worldwide. Upload your footage, select your spoken language, and choose the language for your voiceover. The AI adjusts dialogue and syncs mouth movements, creating a natural-looking dubbed video. Add translated text to your outros, and create branded endings that connect with global audiences.

 Narrate your footage

With Captions’ Voiceover Generator, you can cast an AI actor to narrate your videos. Simply pick from one of several integrated AI models, and pick the character that fits your content best. Then, insert your script and generate. Within seconds, you’ll have a clear, well-timed audio track with accurate captions to match. Use this tool to give your outros a custom touch — have an AI avatar remind viewers to watch the next video or subscribe.

Remove mistakes easily

If filming didn’t quite go as planned, use Captions’ Video Splitter tool to easily clean up mistakes and add new content. Just tap the timeline to separate clips, remove what you don’t need, and insert fresh footage from your device. Then, use the outro maker to wrap up your videos with your creative stamp. Polish footage in just a few clicks — no extra effort required.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ

What’s a YouTube outro, and why is it important for my videos?

A YouTube outro is the final scene in your video, like a digital sign-off. It usually tells viewers about your next video and asks them to subscribe. An outro may seem like a small detail, but your closing scene shapes how people remember your content — and whether they come back for more.

What elements should I include in my outro to maximize engagement?

A good YouTube end screen includes a few key things: Your watermark and logo, links to other playlists, and a clear call to action (like “Subscribe” or “Watch Next”). You can also add social media handles or a quick thank-you message. The goal is to give viewers an easy next step so they stay connected with your content even after the video ends.

How should a call to action (CTA) look in my outro?

Your CTA should be clear, friendly, and quick. Think of something like “Drop a comment below!” or “Check this out next.” Keep it short and visible for a few seconds so people have time to click. You can say your CTA out loud, show it as on-screen text, or even add a clickable button.

Can I resize my videos for platforms other than YouTube?

Yes, most editing tools — including Captions — let you easily resize your aspect ratio for platforms like TikTok (9:16), Facebook (4:5), and Instagram (1:1). With just a few taps, your content is perfectly framed for each channel, no matter where you post.

How long should a video outro be?

Keep your outro short, ideally between 5–15 seconds. This length gives your audience enough time to take action without losing interest. If it runs too long, they might click away. On the other hand, people may not notice your message at all if it’s too short. Aim for a balance that highlights your CTA and leaves a lasting impression before the video ends.
