Could you build this?

No Building a native Mac screen recorder and non-linear video editor with local Whisper transcription, motion graphics, and hardware-accelerated 4K export requires deep macOS systems engineering.

What it would actually take: A real version requires Swift and Objective-C leveraging Apple's ScreenCaptureKit for high-performance screen recording alongside AVFoundation, CoreMedia, and Metal shaders for hardware-accelerated compositing and 4K export. The hardest parts are building a deterministic multi-track video editing engine, smoothing and redrawing vector cursor paths from OS mouse events, and embedding localized ML inference (whisper.cpp) for word-accurate cuts without audio-video desync. This requires specialized expertise in low-level graphics programming, media codecs, and systems-level macOS architecture.
