Every time I needed to transcribe a video at work, I hit the same wall:

the good tools cost money per minute, and the free ones upload your files

to a remote server. Neither was acceptable for work content.

So I built "Pitchfall" - a local transcription tool that runs entirely

on your own machine.

What it does

Upload any video or audio file (or paste a YouTube URL), and Pitchfall:

Transcribes it locally using faster-whisper

Shows a real-time progress bar with the current segment being recognized

Syncs the transcript to the video — click any line to jump to that moment

Exports as .txt or .srt subtitle file

Optionally translates into 10 languages via OpenRouter free models

No API key needed for transcription. No account.…
