whisperpipe - Audio2Text - Speech Recognition System
Project Overview
WhisperPipe is a powerful speech-to-text tool that transforms what you say into written text instantly. It uses advanced artificial intelligence (specifically OpenAI's Whisper technology) to understand speech with remarkable accuracy, all while running locally on your computer.
Think of it as having a personal transcriptionist that never sleeps, never takes breaks, and never charges you a penny. The magic? It all happens on your device, not on some distant server. This means your voice data never leaves your computer, giving you complete privacy and control.
