Hey Product Hunt! 👋

I'm Rohit Kumar, the maker behind SubGenius AI.

As a creator, I was constantly frustrated by existing AI subtitling tools:

1. 🐌 Slow uploads: Uploading 1GB–4GB 4K video files to cloud servers takes forever.

2. 🔒 Privacy risks: Your raw, unreleased client or personal footage gets sent to third-party servers.

3. 💸 Subscription traps: Monthly $25+/mo fees that expire even if you only edit 2 videos a month.

So I built SubGenius AI (https://subgeniusai.com) — a privacy-first AI subtitle & translation platform built directly for creators.

### 🚀 What makes SubGenius AI different?

- 🛡️ Zero Video Egress: Your video NEVER leaves your device. Audio is extracted right in your browser using client-side demuxing, so 2GB videos upload in seconds instead of minutes.

- ⚡ Lightning Fast & Accurate: Whisper-powered speech recognition + multi-language translation across 100+ languages.

- 🎬 Built-in Studio Editor: Edit timings, split cues, burn styled subtitles directly into MP4, or export pristine .SRT and .VTT files.

- 💰 Fair, Honest Pricing: 5 free minutes to test right away (no credit card required), followed by pay-as-you-go credit packs where minutes never expire. No forced monthly subscriptions.

### 💬 We'd love your feedback!
