Macwhisper is a macOS and iOS application that locally records, transcribes, searches, and exports multilingual audio and video using Whisper, Parakeet, and integrated AI services.
MacWhisper is a macOS, iPhone, and iPad application for fast, high‑accuracy transcription and dictation using OpenAI Whisper and Nvidia Parakeet. It converts meetings, lectures, interviews, podcasts, and system audio into searchable, editable text directly on your device. Designed for privacy‑sensitive workflows, all local transcriptions run on your own hardware, with no audio leaving your machine unless you explicitly use a cloud provider.
The app supports drag‑and‑drop transcription for common audio and video formats, automatic recording of calls and meetings from tools like Zoom and Teams, and direct microphone capture. Users can search across all transcripts, highlight words, edit or delete segments, and export to .srt, .vtt, CSV, DOCX, PDF, Markdown, HTML, and more. MacWhisper offers system‑wide dictation to replace Apple’s built‑in dictation, automatic filler‑word removal, multi‑language support (100+ languages), and GPU/Metal acceleration for speeds up to ~30x realtime, or up to ~300x with Parakeet v2 on M‑series Macs. Pro features add automatic speaker recognition, batch processing, YouTube and watch‑folder transcription, and integrations with Notion, Zapier, Make.com, n8n, Obsidian, and custom webhooks.
