Could you build this?

Partial Running local frame-by-frame desktop video processing, local Whisper transcription, and visual graph generation demands high-performance local media handling and native application architecture.

What it would actually take: Requires a native desktop stack (such as Tauri/Rust or C++ with Qt/Electron) leveraging hardware-accelerated video decoding (ffmpeg/libmpv) for instant frame scrubbing. It needs an embedded local AI runtime (whisper.cpp or ONNX Runtime) to handle on-device transcription without choking CPU/GPU, alongside an integrated graph database or canvas engine to correlate timeline markers.
