About

A cross-app live-captions overlay for Windows. It captures your system audio and shows live

transcription in an always-on-top overlay, transcribed locally with faster-whisper on your GPU

(with automatic CPU fallback). It can also colour captions by speaker (live diarization) and save

and search every session. Installs per-user with no admin rights; model weights download on first

run.
