What you get in Marathi

A speech model made for Marathi

Marathi speech can be written two ways, and Burncaps asks you once which you want. Our speech service (Microsoft's MAI-Transcribe, run in the EU) writes it best and names the language by itself: on public Marathi test recordings (Google FLEURS) it got about 83 in 100 words and 94 in 100 letters right before any correction, in Devanagari, in about half a second a clip. Only the sound goes to it, never the picture, and nothing is kept. Or everything stays on your device: a speech model made for Marathi (AI4Bharat's IndicConformer, open source, 138 MB once) got about 77 in 100 words and 95 in 100 letters right on the same kind of recordings. Every word is click-to-edit before you export.

Devanagari, drawn properly

Marathi words are drawn in Noto Sans Devanagari, an open-source face made for Devanagari and served from Burncaps itself, at the weight of the style you choose.

Marathi captions on an English video

Speak English and choose Marathi under Captions in: every line is translated and laid over the same moments, so the captions keep their word-by-word rhythm. The reverse works too, Marathi speech captioned in English.

Who this is for

Marathi creators in Maharashtra and beyond, and anyone who wants the same video to reach Marathi viewers. Search for "marathi caption generator" and most results upload your video to a server and charge by the month; Burncaps does the work on your own device, so the free videos are not bait: after them you can keep going free with a small burncaps.app mark, or pay $49, once, for none.

Questions, answered plainly

Does it write real Marathi?

Yes, in Devanagari. When Burncaps hears an Indian language it offers our speech service, which names the language itself and got about 83 in 100 Marathi words right in our test (only the sound is sent, never the picture, and nothing is kept), or a speech model made for Marathi that runs on your own device (138 MB once, about 77 in 100). Every word is click-to-edit before you export.

Can I get Marathi captions on an English video?

Yes. Choose Marathi under Captions in and the lines are translated, keeping the word-by-word timing of the original. The translation sends the transcript text, never the video, and you can switch it off with Keep everything on this device.

Are the Marathi captions drawn in a proper font?

Yes. Marathi words are drawn in Noto Sans Devanagari, an open-source face made for Devanagari, loaded from Burncaps itself.

Is there a watermark on the free videos?

Not on your first two: they are free with every feature and no mark of ours. After that you can keep going free, and each video carries a small burncaps.app mark in the top corner; Pro, $49 once, gives unlimited videos with no mark, never a subscription.

Does my video get uploaded?

No. The video never leaves your device. On a computer the speech model runs in your browser. On a phone, for a language other than English, or when you ask for a closer transcript, you can choose our speech service instead: then the sound goes to it in short pieces, never the picture, and nothing is kept. The transcript text leaves only for the 30 or 60 second cut, the name check or a translation, and a tick box keeps everything on your device.
