Cuecaps VS ShellNewHandler

Cuecaps's answer

• Unlimited exports on every plan, including Free. Submagic, for example, caps videos per month on each plan (as of October 2026).
• Your footage stays on your computer: no uploads, no waiting on cloud renders, files up to 4 GB.
• Transparent overlays for your own editor on Creator, instead of re-editing the whole video in someone else's app.
• Word-level control: every word sits on a waveform and can be retimed in 10 ms steps, split, merged or emphasised.
• Creator is €9 a month or €84 a year, VAT included.

Cuecaps's answer

Creators who post Shorts, TikToks and Reels every week and want captions that keep muted viewers watching. Video editors who cut in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or CapCut and need caption overlays rather than another editor. Social media teams, podcasters and educators turning long recordings into clips. People working with private or NDA footage pick it because the video never leaves their computer.

Cuecaps's answer

Everything happens in the browser, on your own computer. Cuecaps transcribes with a speech model that runs on your device, times every word against the audio waveform and renders the finished video locally, so multi-gigabyte footage never uploads and exports are unlimited. It also exports transparent MOV and WebM caption overlays, so animated captions drop straight onto a timeline in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or CapCut.

Cuecaps's answer

I make Blender 3D tutorials as YouTube Shorts. Captioning them meant uploading multi-gigabyte renders to cloud subscription apps and waiting on their renders. So I built the tool I wanted: drop in a render, get frame-accurate word-by-word captions in a few clicks, and export straight from the browser. The cloth-simulation clip on the Cuecaps home page comes from my own channel.

The studio is plain JavaScript that runs entirely in the browser: - Whisper (base, timestamped) through Transformers.js, on WebGPU or WebAssembly, for on-device transcription - a small on-device model of our own that places caption breaks and punctuation in English - Canvas 2D to draw the captions, WebCodecs for hardware video encoding, Mediabunny for MP4 and WebM files and a small QuickTime writer for transparent MOV - ElevenLabs Scribe v2 for optional cloud transcription

The website and accounts run on Next.js, React and TypeScript on Vercel, with Supabase (EU), Stripe and Resend.
