Could you build this?
Partial While transcription and UI are easy, reliably detecting engaging clips, executing active-speaker facial tracking to reframe widescreen video to 9:16, and orchestrating video rendering at scale requires complex media engineering.
What it would actually take: A viable system requires a distributed media pipeline using FFmpeg, GPU worker queues (e.g., Celery or Temporal), and computer vision models (such as MediaPipe or custom YOLO/face-tracking networks) to keep speakers centered in vertical crops. Transcription requires Whisper with word-level timestamps, combined with an LLM for content segmentation and scoring. Fast video rendering at volume requires dedicated GPU infrastructure and dynamic caption compositing engines like Remotion or custom OpenGL/FFmpeg filters.
