LiveCap: Caption & Translate

LiveCap turns audio into live, readable captions—and translates them in real time. On your Mac, LiveCap captures the system audio from any app: video calls, online meetings, streaming video, podcasts, lectures, and games. On your iPhone, it captures in-person conversations through the microphone. Either way, you get instant captions you can actually follow. EVERYTHING ON DEVICE Speech recognition and translation run entirely on your device using Apple's built-in engines. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is kept on a server, and it keeps working offline.
