Live Subtitles EN→ES

In development

Watch anything in English with live Spanish subtitles.

Linux

Play a YouTube video, a class or a talk in English and get two live panels: what is being said, and its Spanish translation. Speech recognition runs offline on your own PC — your audio never leaves your computer — and nothing is recorded or saved.

Key advantages

  • Transcribes the audio playing on your PC, in real time
  • Spanish translation next to the English text
  • Speech recognition 100% offline: your audio stays on your machine
  • Ephemeral session: nothing is recorded
  • Pick which audio output to listen to
  • About 1–2 seconds of delay, typical of live subtitles

Under the hood

A Linux desktop Flutter app that captures the system-audio monitor (PipeWire/PulseAudio), runs streaming speech-to-text offline with sherpa-onnx (zipformer) and translates the text EN→ES. Only text travels to the translation service; the voice model downloads once on first use.
