About QuickWhisper

QuickWhisper is a macOS application for transcription, dictation, and AI summarization using OpenAI's Whisper model. It runs entirely on-device with no cloud dependency required.

The application transcribes audio from local files, YouTube videos, online meetings, and system audio. QuickWhisper can record meetings with calendar integration while keeping the recording interface hidden during screen sharing.

System-wide dictation works across all macOS applications, replacing keyboard input with voice. All transcription runs on your Mac.

AI summarization is available through cloud providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, Mistral, Groq) or on-device via Ollama and LM Studio.

QuickWhisper also includes batch transcription, Watch Folders for automatic background transcription, speaker diarization, Apple Shortcuts integration, and webhooks for third-party service integration.

Gladia
Gladia is an advanced audio transcription and intelligence platform delivered via a unified API that supports both asynchronous (pre-recorded) and real-time streaming transcription, enabling developers to convert speech to text in over 100 languages with features like word-level timestamps, language detection, code-switching, speaker diarization, translation, summarization, custom vocabulary, and entity extraction. Its real-time engine achieves latencies under 300 ms while maintaining high accuracy, and it offers “partials” (intermediate transcripts) to improve responsiveness in live settings. The platform’s asynchronous API is powered by a proprietary Whisper-Zero model optimized for enterprise audio, and it lets clients apply add-ons such as enhanced punctuation, name consistency, custom metadata tagging, and export to subtitle formats (SRT, VTT).
