# TimeChat-Captioner

Generate detailed, time-aware, and structurally coherent audio-visual captions for
multi-scene videos. Upload a short video clip (~60 seconds recommended) and get a
script-like description with timestamps that coordinates visual and audio information.

## Model

[yaolily/TimeChat-Captioner-GRPO-7B](https://huggingface.co/yaolily/TimeChat-Captioner-GRPO-7B) —
a 7B VLM fine-tuned from Qwen2.5-Omni-7B for dense video captioning.

## Paper

## Usage

1. Upload a video (recommended ~60 second clips for best timestamps).
2. Optionally customize the prompt.
