A Mac captioning studio that transcribes, translates, styles, and exports two-language subtitles entirely on-device.

Why it surfaced

sordino is built for the specific problem of keeping two audiences in frame at once, with separate styling for each language and support for Cantonese, Mandarin, and English. It exports either a finished MP4 or an .ass subtitle file, while the site promises no uploads, accounts, API keys, or caption credits.
