SonicCaption's answer

SonicCaption adds real-time bilingual captions as a lightweight overlay on top of the website you’re already using. It’s designed to work across platforms (videos, meetings, livestreams) instead of being tied to a single app, so you don’t need uploads, downloads, or switching tools.

SonicCaption's answer

It’s fast to start, works on more sites, and stays out of the way. You get clear live captions with optional translation in one place, with a simple browser-extension workflow—open a tab, choose languages, and read along—ideal for learning and understanding without disrupting the content.

SonicCaption's answer

Language learners, international professionals, and global teams who watch videos or attend meetings in a non-native language and need real-time understanding. Also useful for anyone who wants clearer comprehension in webinars, online courses, and cross-border calls.

SonicCaption's answer

I built SonicCaption because I regularly watch courses and join meetings in languages I’m not fluent in. Existing tools were either platform-specific or required extra steps. I wanted something that works anywhere in the browser and helps me understand instantly with minimal friction.

Chrome/Edge extension (Manifest V3), real-time streaming speech-to-text, machine translation, and a web backend for session management and billing. The product focuses on low-latency audio capture + streaming transcription to deliver captions in real time.
