Video Transcoding
H.264, HEVC, or AV1 — choose your codec. Adjust resolution, frame rate, and bitrate. Apple Silicon GPU acceleration included.
The only native desktop app that combines video downloading, AI transcription, and media processing in one workflow. Local-first, one-time purchase.
No single app handles video downloading, AI transcription, and media conversion together — so most people stitch separate tools together.

Download at the highest available resolution — or pull just the audio track as a standalone file. No quality caps, no re-encoding.
Sign in to YouTube or Bilibili directly inside ReelMeld, or import cookies from your browser in one click. Member-only content downloads without extra setup.
Paste a playlist URL, pick the videos you want, and queue them all at once. Any size, handled cleanly. Pro feature.
Each download uses multiple parallel connections to fully saturate your bandwidth. Up to 10 tasks at once, with auto-retry and pause/resume built in.
Switch to a thumbnail grid to see all your download tasks at once. Each card shows the video thumbnail, title, and progress — ideal for managing large batches visually.
Whisper-based transcription with precise timestamps. Export as SRT or VTT — ready for any video editor. Your API key, your cost.
Full transcription organized into clean, readable paragraphs. Optional AI polish for voice-to-text cleanup. Works with Groq, OpenAI, and Gemini.
Translate generated subtitles into any target language — Chinese, English, Japanese, and more. Works on local video files too, not just downloads.
GPU-accelerated and built directly into your workflow. No HandBrake, no FFmpeg commands — just pick a format and go.
H.264, HEVC, or AV1 — choose your codec. Adjust resolution, frame rate, and bitrate. Apple Silicon GPU acceleration included.
Pull the audio from any video and export as MP3, M4A, FLAC, and more. Batch-ready with Pro.
Join multiple video clips or replace a video's audio track entirely. Final output, no post-processing needed.
A unified task list that centralizes downloads, transcodes, and AI jobs in one place. Track progress, status, and quick actions across all three modules without switching views.

"The transcript quality is excellent, and the Markdown output fits my writing workflow perfectly. This replaced my entire post-interview process."

macOS 11 (Big Sur) or newer, and Windows 10 64-bit or newer. Both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs are supported natively.
Yes, and they require your own API key from Groq, OpenAI, or Gemini. Requests are sent using your key and billed to your account. Your media files stay on your device — we never upload or store your content.
You get all app updates released in the year following your purchase date. After that window, your installed version keeps working normally — no features are disabled or removed.
Available for macOS and Windows. No account required — just download and start.
