FluentCap – Real-time captions and translations for any computer audio

Summary: FluentCap provides live transcription and translation for any audio playing on your computer, including movies, meetings, and podcasts. It operates system-wide, unlike most caption apps limited to browsers or specific software. Users connect their own API keys from providers like Deepgram, Gladia, or AssemblyAI and pay only for usage.

What it does

FluentCap transcribes and translates audio in real-time across the entire system, supporting over 100 languages. All transcripts are stored locally, and the service uses a BYOK model requiring users to supply their own API keys.

Who it's for

It is designed for remote workers, international meeting attendees, and anyone needing real-time captions or translations for diverse audio sources on their computer.

Why it matters

It solves the limitation of captions restricted to specific apps by enabling system-wide, real-time transcription and translation, improving accessibility and comprehension across languages.
