Free lower third maker for YouTube and podcasts

A name and a title that slide in at the bottom of the frame — for you, a guest, or a sponsor. Type them below, pick a style and a colour, and export it with a transparent background.

Exported free with a small VidTraffic mark in the corner. Open it in the full editor — free with a Google sign-in — for no mark, all 216 templates, effects, and several overlays at once.

How it works

  1. Type the name and title

    Yours, a guest's, or “Sponsored by” and a code.

  2. Pick a style

    Accent bar, solid block, minimal line, split, pill, glass, and more — in your colour.

  3. Export and place it

    Export a transparent file and put it over the first seconds someone is on screen.

Questions

Does it have a transparent background?

Yes. The WebM export keeps its transparency and the PNG sequence is transparent frame by frame. If your editor does not read transparent video, choose the MP4 on green and key the green out.

How long does it stay on screen?

As long as you set — from one second to fifteen. It slides in, holds, and slides out.

Is there a watermark?

Exports from this page carry a small VidTraffic mark in the bottom corner. The full editor adds none — it is free too; you sign in with Google to use it.

Does it have sound?

Yes, unless you switch it off: clicks, dings and swishes timed to the overlay, in the exported file. The sounds are made by VidTraffic, so there is nothing to license.

Do I have to upload anything?

No. It is drawn and exported in your browser. Nothing you type here is sent to us.
