How these tools work
A few things that are true about every tool on this site.
Local-first
Your videos stay on your machine by default. No forced cloud uploads, no account required.
Lightweight & fast
Each tool solves one problem and does it well. No subscription apps, no bloated suites.
Made by one person
Every tool is built and maintained by a single developer. Direct feedback, direct fixes.
Free to download
All tools are free. Some may have optional paid AI backends (e.g. DeepSeek API), but the app itself is free.

VoxOver
Drop in any video, pick a Whisper model for transcription, choose a translation backend (local Ollama, DeepSeek, OpenAI, or Anthropic), and export a translated SRT, MKV soft-sub, or MP4 with baked-in subtitles. Runs natively on macOS with Apple Silicon acceleration.
Built by one developer
LingYue Tools is a side project. I build tools I actually need, then share them. If you have a bug, a feature idea, or just want to say hello — email me directly. I read everything.
