This tool helps you automatically convert spoken audio into text. You feed it single-channel 16-bit PCM audio files or live audio streams, and it outputs the recognized text along with timing and probability information in a structured JSON format. It's designed for anyone who needs to process spoken words into a written transcript efficiently.

4,278 stars. Used by 2 other packages. Available on PyPI.

Use this if you need an efficient, compact solution for basic speech-to-text transcription of audio files or live input, particularly for scenarios where resources are limited.

Not ideal if you require the absolute highest accuracy, advanced natural language understanding, or support for a wide range of complex audio formats without prior conversion.
