Captions for every Chrome tab

Hear every word.
Keep it private.

Accurate live captions in your sidebar, over the video, or both. Use your computer when it can—and secure cloud transcription when it can’t.

Captions for meetings, courses, streams, podcasts, and video

Automatic by design

One button. The right caption engine.

Live Caption checks for existing subtitles first, then chooses the best transcription path for your computer and privacy preference.

01

Existing subtitles

If the video already has captions, we use them instantly. No audio processing and no cloud minutes.

Fastest · Free
03

Secure cloud

On a slower computer—or without the Companion—cloud speech keeps captions responsive.

Fast on any computer · Metered

You stay in control. Choose Automatic, Private Companion, Cloud performance, or Browser compatibility at any time.

See every word land

Captions that feel like part of the conversation.

Natural sentence breaks, live highlighting, click-to-translate words, and a transcript library that’s ready when the call ends.

  • Fast on-device English transcription
  • Sidebar, video overlay, or both
  • Automatic or click-to-translate text
  • Saved session history
  • Optional cross-device transcript sync

Recorded from the extension running locally.

Privacy without guesswork

You always know where your data goes.

01

Local means local

With the Companion selected, tab audio is processed only on your computer.

02

Cloud is clearly labeled

Cloud performance sends short audio chunks for transcription and meters the seconds used.

03

Sync is optional

Your transcript library stays in Chrome unless you enable private account sync.
