Hello world!

As a video editor, researcher, digital media enthusiast, and lover of all things FLOSS, I've been on the hunt for an open source alternative to proprietary services like Otter.ai, Sonix, and Descript. I've pitched my idead on open-source-ideas, but I wanted to create a dedicated post for it so that it can reach as many people as possible.

A simple, easy-to-use application where users can dictate or upload audio or video files, and an automated transcript is generated. This transcript is synced to the audio track, clickable, and editable, so that users can skip to certain passages and refine the transcript accordingly.

The revised transcript can then be exported as plain text, .srt caption file (and other subtitle formats), .pdf, shareable web page, etc. for further processing.
