Hi Product Hunt! I built Aurora Subtitles to make live captions and translated subtitles available across everyday Windows audio, not just inside one meeting app. It captures microphone or system audio, processes speech locally on compatible NVIDIA GPUs, and shows captions in a customizable overlay for Discord, games, meetings, streams, videos, and accessibility workflows. The goal is simple: more control, more privacy, and no per-minute cloud credits or monthly subscription. Aurora is in Early Access, so feedback on setup, latency, overlay behavior, and real-world use cases is especially useful.

How does it handle fast speakers or overlapping voices when generating real-time subtitles, and does the local processing add any noticeable lag compared to cloud-based alternatives?

Runs quietly in the background and translations show up almost instantly, even on my mid-range GPU. Local processing means I'm not worried about sending meeting audio to some random server.
