Real-Time Subtitles. On Your Screen.

Real-time overlay Works with any app 100% local

How Live Subtitles Work

Three steps from joining a meeting to seeing real-time captions on your screen. No setup, no plugins, no cloud.

01

Join Any Meeting

Open Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Slack Huddles, or any conferencing app. Antimeet automatically detects the call and begins listening to system audio — no browser extensions or plugins required.

02

See Floating Subtitles

Antimeet displays a floating subtitle overlay on your screen in real time. Captions appear as words are spoken, processed entirely on your Mac's Apple Silicon Neural Engine. The overlay stays on top of all windows so you never miss a word.

03

Subtitles Saved as Transcript

Every subtitle is simultaneously saved as a searchable transcript. After the meeting, you can replay the recording, search by keyword, or browse the full conversation — all stored locally on your Mac.

Who Benefits From Live Subtitles

Live meeting subtitles help everyone communicate better — whether you need accessibility, clarity, or just a way to follow along without maxing out your attention.

Non-Native Speakers

Follow conversations more easily with real-time text on screen. When English (or any language) is not your first language, reading along while listening dramatically improves comprehension and reduces the mental load of meetings.

Hearing-Impaired Users

Get reliable accessibility without depending on platform-specific captions that may be unavailable, inaccurate, or cloud-dependent. Antimeet subtitles work across every meeting app, processed locally with consistent quality.

Noisy Environments

Read along when audio is unclear — coffee shops, open offices, co-working spaces, or anywhere background noise competes with meeting audio. Subtitles let you follow the conversation visually when your ears cannot keep up.

Multitaskers

Glance at subtitles while working in other apps. The floating overlay stays visible on top of your code editor, browser, or documents — so you can monitor the meeting conversation without switching windows or splitting your attention.

Subtitles Become Transcripts

What starts as live captions on your screen automatically becomes a permanent, searchable meeting record. No extra steps, no manual saving.

From Real-Time Captions to Searchable Archive

Every word that appears in the subtitle overlay is simultaneously written to a local transcript. When the meeting ends, you have a complete, timestamped, speaker-identified record of the entire conversation. This is how Antimeet bridges the gap between live subtitles and full meeting transcription — they are the same feature, serving two purposes at once.

Zero-Effort Archiving Subtitles are saved automatically. No buttons to click, no recordings to export.
Full-Text Search Across All Meetings Search by keyword, speaker, or date across months or years of subtitle transcripts — instantly, locally.
Replay With Synced Audio Click any line in the transcript to jump to that exact moment in the meeting recording.

Antimeet works as both an AI meeting assistant and a dedicated Zoom transcription tool — every live subtitle session feeds into the same searchable archive.

Frequently Asked Questions About Live Meeting Subtitles

Everything you need to know about real-time subtitles and captions on Mac.

How do live meeting subtitles work in Antimeet?

Antimeet captures system audio from any meeting application — Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, or any other app — and runs a speech recognition model locally on your Mac's Apple Silicon Neural Engine. The recognized speech is displayed as a floating subtitle overlay on your screen in real time, with no cloud processing or network delay. Subtitles appear as words are spoken, and every session is automatically saved as a searchable transcript.

Do the subtitles work with Zoom, Google Meet, and Teams?

Yes. Antimeet captures system audio directly at the OS level, so it works with any application that produces audio — including Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Slack Huddles, FaceTime, Discord, and more. No browser extensions or plugins are required. The subtitle overlay floats on top of any window, regardless of which meeting app you are using.

Are the subtitles processed locally or in the cloud?

100% locally. Antimeet runs its entire speech recognition pipeline on your Mac's Apple Silicon Neural Engine. Audio never leaves your device, and no data is sent to any cloud server. This means zero latency, complete privacy, and the ability to use subtitles even without an internet connection.

Can I search past subtitle transcripts?

Yes. Every live subtitle session is automatically saved as a full, searchable transcript on your Mac. You can search across all past meetings by keyword, speaker, date, or topic — and find results instantly. Your subtitle history becomes a permanent, searchable meeting archive stored entirely on your device.

Do live subtitles work offline?

Yes. Because all speech recognition happens on-device using Apple Silicon's Neural Engine, live subtitles work without any internet connection. You can use subtitles on a plane, in a basement, on spotty hotel Wi-Fi, or anywhere your Mac goes. Of course, the meeting itself may require internet, but Antimeet's subtitle processing does not.

How is this different from Zoom's built-in captions?

Zoom's built-in captions are processed in the cloud, only work within the Zoom app, are not saved as searchable transcripts by default, and require an internet connection. Antimeet's subtitles work across all meeting platforms (not just Zoom), are processed locally for zero delay and full privacy, are automatically saved as searchable transcripts, work offline, and include speaker identification. Antimeet also costs $49 once — no subscription required.

Is the subtitle overlay customizable?

Yes. You can adjust the position, size, and opacity of the floating subtitle overlay to fit your workflow. The overlay stays on top of all windows, so you can see subtitles while using any application — whether you are in a meeting app, taking notes, writing code, or browsing documents. You can also toggle subtitles on and off at any time during a meeting.
