SubItUp: Browser Extension & Web App for Real-Time Captions

SubItUp is a browser extension and web app that provides captions and subtitles for online videos. It uses speech recognition and machine translation to generate subtitles in real-time, allowing videos to be more accessible for deaf, hard of hearing, and non-native language speakers.

What is SubItUp?

SubItUp is a browser extension and web application that enables users to view captions and subtitles for videos playing on websites that do not natively support them. It works by performing automatic speech recognition on the video's audio track to generate a text transcript, which is then displayed as subtitles synced to the video.

Some key features of SubItUp include:

  • Real-time speech-to-text transcription for generating live subtitles as the video plays
  • Support for over 80 languages for speech recognition and machine translation
  • Completely browser-based, with extensions available for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge
  • Web app also available to use without installing any extensions
  • Adjustable subtitle settings like font, size, background, text color
  • Ability to edit auto-generated captions to correct any recognition errors

SubItUp aims to make online video more accessible for those who are deaf or hard-of-hearing, allow videos to be watched without sound, aid language learners in improving comprehension, and enable video consumption in noisy environments. Its real-time subtitling can be helpful in educational contexts, business settings, and personal use.
