The local-first approach resonates deeply. I built NexClip AI with the same philosophy β video stays on your Mac, only audio is sent for AI analysis when needed. The OCR context for disambiguation is clever. We solved a similar challenge with audio RMS data β using silence detection and sentence boundaries to create precise segment cuts instead of relying purely on transcript text. Curious:...

Hey Product Hunt! I'm Kiyoshi, a solo founder with 25 years in video production and 15 years building Mac/iOS apps. NexClip AI is the Topic-Based Editing tool for video and audio. Import a 3-hour recording, AI extracts every topic, you pick the ones that matter, and export topic-based clips with subtitles in minutes. Every AI clipping tool I tried made the same assumption: the AI decides what's...

NexClip AITopic-Based Editing: Pick your topics. Get your clips.
NexClip AI brings Topic-Based Editing to long-form video. Instead of scrubbing timelines or letting AI decide what's important, you choose the topics that matter.
Import an interview, lecture, podcast, or webinar. AI transcribes it, extracts topics, and you pick which ones to clip. No NLE needed.
Built by a solo founder with 25 years in video production who got tired of AI tools that decide what's "interesting" instead of asking what's relevant.
You decide what matters. The AI handles the rest.

2B params delivering 48kHz + voice design + cloning is impressive capability density. As someone building an audio/video editing tool that relies on audio analysis for precise segment boundaries, I appreciate how much source quality matters. Curious: how does VoxCPM2 handle multilingual switching within a single utterance β e.g. Japanese with embedded English terms?

Mac native, local processing, no subscription, $49 forever β this is exactly how developer tools should be sold. Respect. I'm a solo founder building a Mac-native video editor with Swift + Rust, and I've been dealing with the same transcription challenge from a different angle: speech-to-text for video editing. The speed difference between local and cloud transcription is night and day for UX....

This nails a real problem. I'm a solo founder building a Mac-native video editor, and the hardest part of building in public isn't the building β it's turning the work into content. The idea that your meetings are already the content is powerful. Most founders overthink content creation when they're already saying valuable things every day. Quick question: do the generated shorts preserve the...

Solo founder, built it for yourself, girlfriend told you to launch β that's the best origin story. I'm building a Mac-native video editor and rely on cloud transcription right now. 99% accuracy fully offline with Whisper is exactly what I'd want to offer my users as an option. How does it handle longer audio β say 60+ minutes of a lecture or interview? And how's the Japanese accuracy

10+ years in multimedia and building the tool you wished existed β that resonates. I'm a solo dev with 25 years in video production, building a Mac-native video editor for the same reason: the tool I needed didn't exist. Curious about the Tauri choice β how's the performance compared to Electron for heavy media inspection workloads? The jobs queue for long-running tasks is a smart touch.

Native Swift + Metal rendering, under 100MB, no Electron β you're speaking my language. I'm building a Mac-native video editor with the same stack (Swift + Metal + Rust core) and the GPU-accelerated pipeline makes all the difference for real-time playback. Smart Zoom from click tracking is clever β that's the kind of feature that only works well when you have direct access to system-level...

Love this idea. Giving first-time launches a dedicated space makes so much sense β the biggest challenge for new products isn't the product itself, it's getting seen on a day crowded with established players. I'm launching NexClip AI on April 14 (first topic-based video editor for macOS), so I'll miss this Thursday's Alpha Day, but I'll be checking in to try and comment on Alpha products. Great...

The dual-mode approach is smart. I'm building a Mac-native video editor that uses cloud transcription for accuracy, but I'd love to offer a local option for users who don't want to send audio off-device. How does Local Mode handle longer recordings β say 60+ minutes of a lecture with technical terminology? And how's the Japanese accuracy in Local Mode?

Love this. SwiftUI menu bar apps are such an underrated format β lightweight, always accessible, no context-switching. I'm building a Mac-native video editor with SwiftUI + Rust and the menu bar philosophy resonates: do one thing well, stay out of the way. The 'Flighty for space missions' direction sounds incredible. Congrats on the launch and good luck with splashdown!

Regional language specialization resonates with me. I built a Rust-based Japanese NLP engine for NexClip AI because no video editing tool handles Japanese sentence boundaries properly. Great to see multilingual AI getting this kind of attention.

Fellow Mac developer here! Building NexClip AI (native macOS video editor). Clean concept β accessing Reminders from the screen edge is the kind of small UX win that makes you wonder why it didn't exist before. How are you handling the Reminders API permissions?

Interesting β this solves the creation side, while we're solving the extraction side. At NexClip AI, educators import long lecture recordings and pull out topic-based clips. Slides β video and video β clips feel like natural complements for the education workflow.

Multilingual ASR is a hard problem β especially for noisy audio. We deal with this at NexClip AI too, where accurate timestamps on every word are critical for topic-based video editing. Curious how MAI-Transcribe-1 handles word-level timestamp accuracy across languages?

Just ran 6 parallel Claude agents today for a launch strategy analysis. The bottleneck is always orchestration, not the model. Curious how you handle context sharing between agents.

Love seeing more native Mac apps. Building a native macOS video editor myself β there's something about the feel of a well-built Mac app that web can't touch. How are you handling audio previews β AVAudioEngine?

I've been using Claude Code daily to build a macOS app (Rust + SwiftUI). Voice mode while reviewing diffs or planning architecture would be a game-changer β hands on keyboard, thinking out loud. Trying this today.
