Hi Product Hunt 👋 I'm Kimm, solo founder of LyricMV. Here's the honest truth: I kept listening to emotional songs on YouTube — slow covers, cinematic ballads, intimate indie tracks. And every time, the lyrics would show up 1–2 seconds *before* the vocals actually hit. My brain would read ahead. The vocal arrives… but the emotional punch was already gone. That drove me crazy. So I started experimenting: what if lyrics only appear *exactly when the voice starts singing*? Not faster. Not earlier. Just… on time. LyricMV is the result: 1. Upload any audio 2. Whisper AI transcribes (accurate down to timestamps) 3. Our sync logic aligns lyrics to vocal onset — not to a generic word-by-word subtitle track 4. Export HD lyric video with cinematic templates It's not about speed. It's about pacing. I built this because I believe lyric videos can be *immersive*, not distracting. [YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@LyricMV...) to test if listeners actually notice the difference (spoiler: they do). Check it out: [lyricmv.com](https://lyricmv.com) Would love to hear: - Do you notice when lyrics show up too early? - Or am I just overly sensitive to timing? 😄 Happy to answer anything — tech stack, pricing, why I didn't pick a wider brand name (yet). Jeff

We launched a YouTube channel to test if lyric timing actually matters — here's what we found

I built LyricMV because I couldn't stop reading ahead before the vocals hit.

Instead of just launching a tool, I started a YouTube channel to see if real listeners notice the difference.

Early observation: when lyrics arrive exactly on the vocal, people comment on the feeling, not the speed.
