@Liquidfusion if you know of one, post it! This is a user contributed post. Titling software is listed. proDAD, Boris FX, and NewBlue FX all have titling software.
What about Non subscription special FX similar to Boris Sapphire? What about innovative titling software - free / paid? Thanks.
@Liquidfusion Sapphire is an award-winning plug-in and very expensive. I suggest you take a look at Continuum. Continuum also contains a powerful Title Studio.

@lan-mLMC If you have plugins to add, or changes you would like to make to your earlier comment, you can let us know in a new comment here and mods will make the change.
It seems that he has logged out of the forum, as his old posts are now only marked as “Former User.” His Github website also leads to Error 404. We can only speculate about his withdrawal, as no further information has been left on this forum (or has it?). What will happen to the registered users of his software, such as Autocaption, is also unclear. Perhaps someone can shed some light on the matter.

There was a dispute a few days ago between Joelson and another user about plagiarism the used code for his tools...probably that's the reason...
What happened to Joelson-Forte and the GitHub software like Audio Sync for Vegas Pro?
@Ecquillii@frmax@3POINT Since I was the one who accused Joelson-Forte of plagiarism, I feel it's necessary for me to provide a complete account of the entire incident.
He released three extensions in total: Auto Captions for VEGAS Pro, Auto Sync for VEGAS Pro, and Demucs for VEGAS Pro. Each was priced at $49 USD.
Among them, his Demucs for VEGAS Pro was released on October 21st, 2025. We can see that another post on the forum, dated earlier (August 18th), shared a similar free script: Demucs Stem Splitter for Vegas Pro. Therefore, I have reason to suspect that he engaged in code plagiarism.
Under Joelson-Forte's post for Demucs for VEGAS Pro, other users also expressed doubts about potential code appropriation. However, he guaranteed that it was "completely developed from scratch", which piqued my interest. I used decompilation tools to decompile the code of both versions to check for overlaps. (Note: My actions here are not entirely legal in a legal sense. However, code inspection is logically meaningful, as it is impossible for two tools "developed from scratch" to share identical class structures, method implementations, etc.)
Subsequently, I posted my views on his code plagiarism under the post, using strongly worded language. However, he still insisted that he hadn't engaged in code plagiarism. Later, he deleted his Demucs for VEGAS Pro post and its sales page.
At this point, I believe my actions were justified. Although he made improvements to the original Demucs script by adding some minor features, he didn't change its core functional implementation. Paying $49 USD for such a plagiarized extension is rather absurd.
However, I also bear some responsibility for what happened next. Due to my strong suspicion, I searched for information about Joelson-Forte's other extensions and found that his Auto Sync for VEGAS Pro might be related to another open-source project, AudioAlign. I discovered that a few months before he released Auto Sync, he had submitted an issue related to VEGAS Pro to AudioAlign. At the time, I believed he had also plagiarized some code from this project, so I posted a warning to the original author here: https://github.com/protyposis/AudioAlign/issues/38. However, the original author later responded that there were no suspicious indicators in Joelson-Forte's Auto Sync extension, indicating that my judgment was incorrect. Here, I need to apologize.
At the end of this issue, Joelson-Forte responded:
I want to reaffirm that I'm 100% sure I never used anything from Audio Align. But all of this left me so disappointed with what people are capable of making up that I decided to stop creating apps and have already removed everything I made.
As a result, he deleted all the VEGAS Pro extensions he had released.
Since this was his decision, there's nothing I can say about it. If some users need to blame someone, you can blame me, as my erroneous judgment ultimately led him to delete all the useful extensions. I apologize once again.
If anyone has purchased his extensions, you can try contacting him via email to discuss follow-up matters.
Auto captions and auto sync are available to purchase on his website the last I checked. Update: developer seems to be gone from the internet and deleted his forum user profile as well.
Those are some good plug-ins, but because he uses other people's code, he should get the consent of the original author before selling them, otherwise it is plagiarism which is unfair to the original author.
