Short answer: Download Concat from the website or GitHub Releases for your platform; then on macOS, if an unsigned build will not open, run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Concat.app; download a caption model size once from Settings. All steps.

Prompt for your agent

Help me caption <video> in jub0t/Concat: pick a Whisper model size that fits my machine, generate captions, suggest a readable caption style for vertical video, and export at 1080x1920.

Caveat. Concat is in beta, and Windows builds are not signed yet, so SmartScreen may warn on install.
