Transcribe audio and video files with remarkable accuracy—completely offline for privacy. AI Transcription uses OpenAI’s advanced Whisper speech recognition (ASR) to convert speech (from podcasts and presentations to meetings, lectures, and voice messages) into text and subtitles. It’s designed to perform reliably even with strong accents, background noise, or domain-specific language. Features • AI-powered audio-to-text converter • Just drag & drop: Transcription starts automatically • Supercharged by OpenAI’s Whisper speech recognition technology (ASR) • Privacy by design: Your audio never leaves your Mac. Everything is processed on-device, fully offline. • User-friendly, lightweight design, yet powerful • Export transcriptions as plain text, CSV, SBV, SRT and WEBVTT files • Split transcripts into words, sentences, or time segments • Supported input formats: MP3, WAV, CAF, AIFC, M4A, MP4 This app wouldn’t be possible without the work of Georgi Gerganov an his excellent port of OpenAI’s Whisper model in C/C++ (whisper.ccp) ⁂ Support If you need help or want to make a feature suggestion, I’d love hearing from you → https://appahead.studio/help/ Feedback Enjoying AI Transcription?

It handles Cantonese, Mandarin and Japanese!

The accuracy rate I would say only 70-80%.I wish it has build-in manual correction. I doubt it can have self-learning to increae the accuracy. I also wish it has better way to handle batch processing such as auto export the SRT files to the previous saved folder or the same folder as the input file's location. Always default to the Desktop folder is a kind of annoying. Anyway, it is still a good tool.

Now that this app has been updated with OpenAI's Whisper speech recognition, the app really shines. It's fast, fairly accurate, and can create various file types for you (TXT, CSV, SRT, and VTT).I do wish it had better batch options like automatically saving transcription files in a predetermined location and a 'Watch Folder' option to automatically begin transcription of files found in a folder. Great work, keep the updates coming.

Your words really make me happy! 🤗 Love your idea of a “Watched Folder” and a predetermined export location — will see how I can build this! All the best, Martin

The perfect soulution to all my problems.

I was searching high and low for a quick and accurate transcriber for taking meeting notes. Every app I tried was subscription based! For a one time, flat $10 fee, this software has improved my productivity tenfold!! The text requires some editing, which I don't mind at all.10/10 if you've been thinking about getting this app, do it. It's a life/time saver.

"It just works" should be the default, but it is not.

This app is exceptional: It just works. I wish 99% of the other software I use (including Apple's ;-) would follow the non-default attitude of this app: Things should just work without having to go through aggravating ordeals.I was pleasantly surprised by this app. I installed it and then I simply dropped a file with audio (it happened to be a video). After a few seconds, it activated a drop-down menu with "Export TXT. . ." and a choice of various formats. In my case, the text transcription was 100% accurate.Simple interface that does exactly what I wanted.Gut gemacht. Herzlichen Glückwunsch und vielen Dank.

I’ve refined the UI so the app looks great on macOS 26.
