About This Repo#

lonthq/overtone-captions — 47 ⭐ | TypeScript

Overtone documents offline recutting of existing SRT/WebVTT subtitles without API keys, with horizontal and vertical subtitle exports plus word-timed JSON. Word times derived from imported cues are estimates. Hosted transcription uses paid speech and language-model providers; --dry-run estimates cost without sending audio.

Visuals use an author-published screenshot and repository documentation, not an independent transcription accuracy test. Source: https://github.com/lonthq/overtone-captions

Export horizontal and vertical subtitles plus word-timed JSON. Hosted transcription uses speech and language-model services; dry-run estimates costs before sending audio.
