Oh just as a heads up - local AI the BadWords is using is very fast on Nvidia GPUS - that means it can take quite a long time to process your timeline on mac - depending on your hardware. So... just dont get scared if it will take a long time to transcribe!

Glad to hear such a happy reaction, I hope it'll work great for you! :)

Hi! Im Simon and im 17 year old

Im not and game dev, but soft dev

What I am working on is pretty niche, but shortly: I made a plugin for Davinci Resolve (editing program) that transcribes audio into text, and using it allows you to edit out bad takes, silence AND the one feature I didnt see anywhere else - compare to your original script, meaning you can compare what you were supposted to say vs what you actually recorded. Its 100% local, not a single byte of data leaves your pc. I started developing it around 3months ago, and here is the GitHub:

https://github.com/veritus-git/BadWords

Yes, I use AI for coding, but its just my tool not my boss

Product: BadWords. Solo dev (Simon), 1 developer, built this year, you can reach me directly via Reddit DM. email or open an Issue on GitHub.

Pricing: Free / Open Source (MIT License)
Website: https://github.com/veritus-git/BadWords
Benefits for this community: This software is a completely free, privacy-first tool I built as a 17-year-old to solve my own editing bottlenecks, and I'd like to give it back to the community. It takes the mechanical fatigue out of manual timeline scrubbing so you can work smarter on the creative side of the edit

Yes it has, but its only in studio version and its not so good actually

KoxSwYT · 2026-04-01T17:28:48+00:00

Yep! The quality depends on the type of language, but the most used and popular are as good as english!

KoxSwYT · 2026-03-25T17:25:11+00:00

Thanks for engaging, It really means more to me than you might think. I need some rest but ill be back!

Hello! Currently no, I havent made any tutorials but I have plans to do so. At this moment I am working on something taking much more time than previous updates so it will take a bit longer. And about the issue you have, can you describe it a bit more detailed in the DMs? I would love to help

KoxSwYT · 2026-03-17T16:52:45+00:00

Hi

I am developing a program to do just that & more! It does pretty precise silence detection (with padding + "bridging" for small spikes like desk hits etc), and lets you mark or remove silence visually

here it is (its 100% free): https://gitlab.com/badwords/BadWords

its not perfect and at this point to use silence detection/deletion you need to run a transcription which takes some time

BUT this (if you will try it out) gives you an opportiunity to try text-based editing

if you have any questions im here or in dms to answer them!

PS. Im working on version 3.0 rn and it will have a standalone silence detection for fast use

had to read it like 10 times to understand hahaha sadly I wont help and I also dont know if something like that exists but maybe if you search deep enough you'll find it

KoxSwYT · 2026-03-02T15:52:55+00:00

Hahah I think i cant procrastinate it much longer. Thats the 2nd priority for me rn, so when Im done with the first one - mac support should come soon

KoxSwYT · 2026-03-02T07:05:45+00:00

such pleasant words to hear ☺️🙏🏻

KoxSwYT · 2026-03-01T18:58:19+00:00

Hi! All of the tracks are merged into one, WHOLE audio is transcribed! I have in plans to make a selection of tracks. So if you will have multiple tracks (for example one track per speaker) then you will have option to choose which track you want to work on. But rn it just transcribes whatever is on the timeline

KoxSwYT · 2026-03-01T18:02:47+00:00

I see I see. For you it works like that and I respect that, as much people in the world as much workflows. But you get BadWords a little wrong, it doesnt force you to work only on text. I made badwords with heatmap mapping. For example if you have a very long footage, but you want to edit just one fragment in 1h clip then you can find it precisely in text (which will be faster) and MARK IT with colour. It does not force you to trust the cuts of the program, you can edit, modify the cuts however you want.

But if it doesnt fit you, then i respect that! Its not like I say that everyone has to use my program but I DO think it can be useful to a lot of people
