# 🧠 Pycaps Demo: Add Smart, Styled Subtitles to Any Video

> 🎥 Add *TikTok-style* subtitles to your videos with CSS-like styling, animations, and AI transcription – all in Python!

This is a demo of [**pycaps**](https://github.com/francozanardi/pycaps), an open-source Python tool that lets you:

✅ Transcribe videos using **OpenAI Whisper**  
🎨 Style subtitles using **CSS**  
💥 Animate words, lines or segments dynamically  
🧪 Insert **emojis**, **effects**, and **tags** by context or regex  
📦 Render everything into a final styled video, automatically

---

### 🔍 What can you try here?

This online demo lets you:
- Upload a short video (less than 60s)
- Automatically transcribe its audio
- Preview how subtitles look using built-in styles
- Download the final video

> ⚠️ This runs on Hugging Face CPU infra, so it's ideal for short tests. For full GPU-powered rendering, check out the [Colab Notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/117g6xujecjLyXHBwhwyzx0innCMLh_nj?usp=sharing).
