How it works

It uses Whisper, an open-source AI model that recognizes speech and turns it into text. It runs inside your browser.

Privacy

Your audio is never uploaded to a server. The first time it downloads the model (about 40 MB), so it takes a little longer.

Tips

  • Clear audio without noise gives better results.
  • It is a small model: it can make mistakes with strong accents or long recordings.

How accurate is it?
