Kaption is a real-time OCR subtitle overlay for translating dialogue in Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail, running entirely locally with low latency. It uses a multi-stage matching algorithm (SymSpell, n-gram, Levenshtein) and GPU-accelerated capture, making it a technically impressive tool for a niche gaming audience.
