Features
What it does
Word-level timing
Captions are timed per word rather than per line, which is what short-form edits need. Each word carries its own in and out point, and you can nudge any boundary by hand.

Cleanup passes
Exclude filler words so they never reach the caption, and optionally cut silent stretches automatically for a jump-cut feel.

Export where you need it
SRT, Word SRT, VTT and TTML as subtitle files, or burn the captions into an MP4. Encoding uses your GPU when one is available and falls back to the CPU when it is not.

Transcription that runs offline
CapSnip downloads its speech model once during first-run setup and verifies it with a SHA-256 checksum. Every transcription after that happens on your machine. No account, no upload, no usage metering.
Caption styles with live preview
Bounce, Glowy Bounce, Karaoke Step, Karaoke Slide, Pill Box, Stretch, Outline and Plain, each with its own colours and opacity, previewed as you adjust them.
Language control
Auto-detect, or pin transcription to English, Turkish or Arabic.
Try, then buy
What the free trial includes
The free trial runs for 24 hours from first launch.
The trial is not cut down: transcription, every caption style and every export format are available during it, including burned-in MP4. No payment details are needed to start it, and nothing is watermarked. When the 24 hours are up the app stops working until a licence key is entered. Anything you already exported stays yours.

Immediately after payment, Lemon Squeezy, LLC emails your receipt. Your download link and licence key appear instantly in your account at alhomsi.dev/en/account — sign in with Google using the same email address you used at checkout.
