Windows desktop app, beta. A floating BSL signer that reads Windows Live
Captions, so anything your PC plays can be signed, not just what is in a browser.

Install

Download Signlytic AI Setup 0.3.5.exe below and run it. Windows SmartScreen
will warn that the publisher is unknown, because the build is not code-signed
yet: choose More info, then Run anyway.

New in 0.3.5

Microphone audio is switched on for you. Live Captions resets its "Include
microphone audio" option to off every time it starts, so it had to be found and
switched on by hand under Settings, Preferences on every run. Pressing Start
Live Captions
now does it for you.

Worth knowing what this option does: it adds your own microphone as a caption
source. Your side of a conversation gets captioned and signed too, not only the
audio coming out of your PC. If you would rather it stayed off, switch it back
off in Live Captions after starting, or say so and it can be made optional.

If a future Windows update moves that menu, the app says so in its status line
and captions carry on working as before.

New in 0.3.4

Signing speed: 1x, 1.25x, 1.5x, 1.75x and 2x, next to the playback controls.
Your choice is remembered between runs, and changing it mid-sentence takes
effect straight away.

Fixed in 0.3.3

  • Live Captions works in the installed app. The caption reader was packed
    inside app.asar, a virtual archive PowerShell cannot open, so it died the
    moment it started with code 4294770688. It now ships as a real file.
  • Switching 3D back to 2D hides the 3D avatar, instead of leaving it painted
    on top.

Using Live Captions

Press Start Live Captions. The app will start Windows Live Captions for you
if it is not already running. On a machine that has never used it before,
Windows asks you to accept a notice and download a speech model once; complete
that and press the button again.

Live Captions needs Windows 11 22H2 or newer.

Window

Frameless and translucent, always on top. Drag the title strip to move it. The
position buttons snap it to a screen corner, and Float frees it again.

macOS

Not yet. The rest of the app is platform-neutral, but reading system captions on
macOS uses a different API and needs a signed helper, so it is a separate piece
of work. Manual text entry will work there when it ships.

Avatar assets

The 3D character rig is built on third-party assets that are licensed for use in
this project but not for redistribution, so they are not attached to
releases and not included in the source tree. The app streams the model at
runtime. The 2D renderer needs no model.
