…three times instead of just once lol. I've put up a PR to remove the wasteful redundant decoding: https://github.com/FluidInference/FluidAudio/pull/799 With the updated PR code, ran a test comparing transcribing (using Parakeet V3) a 1 hr…

…to FluidAudio that sped up Parakeet V2 and V3 to 320x and 282x faster than real time, respectively: https://github.com/FluidInference/FluidAudio/pull/507 That means one hour of audio transcribed in 11.25 and 12.75 seconds. The Inscribe…

Fluidaudio implements Parakeet on ANE. I'd like to know how SpeechAnalyzer compares in speed. https://github.com/FluidInference/FluidAudio

…let alone having high quality transcriptions. Anyway, most of these apps are built around https://github.com/FluidInference/FluidAudio , if anyone is curious. Their readme has a big list of similar apps as well.

Or write your own custom one with the library that backs it: https://github.com/FluidInference/FluidAudio I did that so that I could record my own inputs and finetune parakeet to make it accurate enough to skip post-processing.
