Browser-based speech transcription that keeps audio private and local
Whisper Web is an in-browser speech-to-text application that transcribes audio files entirely on the user's device without uploading data to external servers. It leverages modern web technologies to run OpenAI's Whisper model locally, ensuring complete privacy for sensitive audio content. The tool is designed for individuals and professionals who need accurate transcription but are concerned about data security, confidentiality, or internet bandwidth. It solves the problem of trusting third-party cloud services with private recordings, meeting notes, interviews, or personal memos. Users simply open the web app, select an audio file, and receive a transcript—all processing happens within their browser.
