A project by [Anubhav Choubey](https://anubhavchoubey.com/) · AI & Media Automation

An automatic short-form video editor: it cuts the silences, writes word-timed captions with Whisper and adds effects, so Shorts and Reels need no manual editing.

## Highlights

- faster-whisper gives word-level timestamps for animated, perfectly synced captions.
- Silence detection trims dead air, and noise reduction cleans the audio.
- MoviePy composites overlays such as green-screen "Like" badges.
- A desktop app built with PyQt5, grown out of a first Streamlit version with Hindi transliteration.
