Straight answer

Screen recorder with on-device captions?

Yes - Lumen is a screen recorder with on-device captions for Windows, Linux and macOS: generate speech-to-text locally, edit the text, and burn captions into the export. Whisper Flow is there for higher accuracy.

Details

Burned-in captions matter for silent autoplay, accessibility and product demos. Lumen runs recognition on your computer - recordings and transcripts are not uploaded to Lumen for captioning.

Local ASR is fast and private; Whisper Flow is available when you want higher accuracy. Edit the caption text, then burn it into the polished MP4 alongside automatic zooms and an optional camera bubble.

Same Premium workflow (~350 MB install, from $9/month early bird) across Windows 10/11, Linux x86_64 and macOS. This is a Lumen feature, not a Screen Studio download.
