Established

This tool helps convert spoken words into text instantly, right on your device, without sending your audio to the cloud. You speak into a microphone, and the software provides a real-time transcript. It's designed for developers building applications where privacy, speed, and offline functionality for speech-to-text are critical.

661 stars. Actively maintained with 34 commits in the last 30 days.

Use this if you are a developer creating applications that require accurate, real-time speech-to-text conversion directly on user devices for privacy or offline use.

Not ideal if you need to process large batches of pre-recorded audio files or if you require speech-to-text for less common languages not currently supported.
