Video overlays are a powerful way to add context and emphasis to your analysis. Whether you want to highlight a player's positioning, draw attention to a tactical movement, or add text annotations for clarity, overlays help your team understand exactly what you're demonstrating.

Text Overlays

Text overlays are added via the notes column and will appear at the bottom of exported clips (if text overlay is selected during export).
