Live Transcript

Live captions for everything your Mac plays. A native menu bar app that transcribes calls, videos and anything else with sound, entirely on your Mac.

Has sound. Streams from Mux, our video host, once you press play.
  • Captions drop from the notch, then settle in a floating panel you can move and pin.
  • Hears whatever your Mac plays, and your microphone if you want it to.
  • Apple Speech or Whisper, with a wizard that compares them on your own voice.
  • A searchable history. Export to Markdown, plain text, subtitles or Apple Notes.
  • Summaries and questions with AI, using on-device models or your own.
  • Live translation.

Studio

A studio of Tech on Tires, LLC.

A polytope is a shape made of flat faces, in any number of dimensions. The lab works the same way: one frame, many faces, each turned toward the people it’s for.

Polytopic Systems is where Tech on Tires, LLC makes its own products: apps, games and tools of any kind. Each gets its own name, its own site and its own colors. This page is the frame that holds them.
