Features
Everything runs on your Mac, most of it from the transcript
From a raw recording to a captioned, multi-platform, accessible video, every capability below runs locally on your Mac, and most of it is driven by editing the transcript.
Editing
The transcript is the timeline.
Delete text to cut video, transcribe locally in seconds, tighten every pause, and get media in any way you like.
Cut by deleting text
Delete words in the transcript and the video skips them, gaplessly.
