8gwifi brings AI subtitles to browser
8gwifi.org launched a free browser-based subtitle tool that lets users upload a video, generate AI captions, style them, and export a captioned MP4. The app renders the final video in the browser with WebCodecs, while the Reddit post says transcription runs through the creator's Whisper setup exposed from a Mac.
This works because it turns a hobbyist Whisper pipeline and modern browser video APIs into something that feels immediately usable for short-form creators. The main hook is free, no-install subtitle generation with local video rendering, though the privacy story is only partial because transcription still depends on a remote Whisper service rather than staying fully on-device.
