Could you build this?
Partial The editing UI and auto-zoom logic are vibe-codeable, but recording call audio alongside screen video and running on-device captions requires native macOS audio and media pipelines that are hard to get right.
What it would actually take: Use ScreenCaptureKit for screen and system audio, Core Audio process taps or virtual audio devices to capture both call sides even on headphones, and Apple's on-device Speech framework for captions. A Swift/AppKit app with an AVFoundation-based timeline editor handles zoom and cursor smoothing. The hard parts are reliable A/V sync, cursor-tracking smoothness, and macOS permissions, which call for a macOS media engineer who knows the platform APIs.
