Open the toolWhat stays on your machine
A caption file from a Sunday service can contain a name, a confession, or a pastoral aside that was never meant to leave the room. There is no good reason for a format conversion to send that anywhere, so the converters, the calculators, and the safe-zone checker do not. They answer on your own machine, including with the network off.
The Shorts grader looks up a public YouTube channel, or scores a checklist you fill in. The caption writer uses the text you paste to draft lines, and does not save it to an account. Neither one cuts the sermon. That takes transcription and rendering, which is what the rest of the site is for.
