Description
Capture Studio is a Windows screen recorder with a real editor behind it, and everything runs on your own PC: no account, no uploads, one-time purchase. Edit on a multi-track timeline with keyframes and transitions, and explain with callouts, numbered steps, spotlights, arrows and keystrokes. Auto-polish cuts idle gaps, smooths the cursor and zooms to follow it. Subtitles and voiceovers are made on-device. Export a project with its media and a colleague just opens it, no invites needed.

Could you build this?
No Capture Studio is a complex native Windows desktop application featuring high-framerate (120 FPS) screen capture, a multi-track timeline video editor, on-device neural voice cloning, speech-to-text, and real-time lip-sync AI avatars.
What it would actually take: The architecture requires high-performance native desktop development (C++ or C#/WPF) utilizing the Windows Desktop Duplication API and hardware-accelerated video pipelines via Direct3D/DirectShow and FFmpeg. The offline AI layer demands integrating and optimizing local neural models (e.g., Whisper.cpp, Piper/Tortoise TTS, and Wav2Lip/SadTalker) via ONNX Runtime or TensorRT to achieve real-time inference on consumer GPUs. Building this requires deep systems engineering, video codec expertise, and machine learning deployment skills.
