GoHighLevel Adds Automatic Captions for Course Videos

TL;DR

Course and membership videos now automatically get transcribed and captioned. Creators no longer need to upload separate subtitle files.

Who this affects

HighLevel has not confirmed who is affected. It likely impacts agency owners and SaaS entrepreneurs who use the course and membership features within GoHighLevel.

What changed

• Course and membership videos now get transcribed automatically after processing.
• Learners can turn captions on directly from the player.
• Creators no longer need to upload a separate subtitle file.
• Spoken language is detected automatically.
• Captions appear in the same language as the original video.
• Creators can still upload or replace their own subtitles.
• HighLevel has not confirmed any limits or plan gating.
• HighLevel has not confirmed the rollout status.

Where to find it

HighLevel has not confirmed the specific location within the product. This feature will likely be accessible within the course builder or membership area settings for individual videos after they have been processed.

How agencies will use this

An agency owner building a client's online course will upload video content to the HighLevel course builder. Once the video processes, the system will automatically generate captions. The client's students can then enable these captions directly in the video player without any additional effort from the agency or the course creator. If the automatic captions require minor edits or a different language subtitle is needed, the agency can still upload a custom subtitle file to replace the automatically generated one.

Our take

This is a standard improvement for the course and membership feature set. It addresses a common user request and makes the platform more accessible for learners. This is not a major update, but it is a quality-of-life enhancement for those using the integrated course functionality. There is no immediate action required from agency owners, but it's worth noting for future course builds.
