What it does

🎥 Auto-Caption Videos for Instagram with Google Drive + Submagic Description Save hours on video editing with this workflow! Whenever you upload a video to a specific Google Drive folder, it’s automatically sent to Submagic to generate engaging captions (using your chosen template). Once the captioned video is ready, it’s pulled back, downloaded, and uploaded into your Google Drive—fully captioned and Instagram-ready. Watch build along videos for workflows like these on: www.youtube.com/@automatewithmarc How It Works Google Drive Trigger – Listens for new video uploads in your chosen folder.
