Coming soon to the Mac App Store

Free to try. For Macs with Apple silicon, macOS 14 or later.
The iPhone app is coming soon.

Wordglint editing a video: the transcript on the left, the video with a caption lighting up the spoken word, caption styles on the right, and the timeline below.

Fix any word in a click

Click a word to hear it, then type the fix. If a word lands a little early or late, nudge its timing on the timeline.

A word in the transcript open for editing while the video shows its caption.

Cut retakes and long pauses

Select the words of a false start and cut them from the video. Long pauses and filler sounds like “um” are found for you and skipped; keep the ones you like.

A retake struck through in the transcript and shown as a cut on the timeline, with skipped pauses outlined.

Nine styles, or your own

Bold pop, karaoke, subtitles, an elegant serif, handwriting and more. Change the font, the colors and the box behind the spoken word, then save it as your own style.

The style panel with nine caption styles, one applied to the video.

All your videos, right where they are

Every video you’ve captioned waits in the library. Videos stay in your folders, with your edits in a small file next to each one: double-click it in Finder to pick up where you left off.

The library: four captioned videos with thumbnails.

Your videos stay on your Mac

Transcription runs on your Mac with an on-device speech model. Nothing is uploaded, there’s no account and nothing is tracked. After the one-time model download, Wordglint works offline. Privacy policy
