🚧 I am working on a complete rewrite of the project. Progress on this can be seen at v4 branch. Consequently, this branch will not receive any new releases or updates.

Whishper is an open-source, 100% local audio transcription and subtitling suite with a full-featured web UI.

Features

  • πŸ—£οΈ Transcribe any media to text: audio, video, etc.
    • Transcribe from URLs (any source supported by yt-dlp).
    • Upload a file to transcribe.
  • πŸ“₯ Download transcriptions in many formats: TXT, JSON, VTT, SRT or copy the raw text to your clipboard.
  • 🌐 Translate your transcriptions to any language supported by Libretranslate.
  • ✍️ Powerful subtitle editor so you don't need to leave the UI!
    • Transcription highlighting based on media position.
    • CPS (Characters per second) warnings.
    • Segment splitting.
    • Segment insertion.
    • Subtitle language selection.
  • 🏠 100% Local: transcription, translation and subtitle edition happen 100% on your machine (can even work offline!).
  • πŸš€ Fast: uses FasterWhisper as the Whisper backend: get much faster transcription times on CPU!
  • πŸ‘ Quick and easy setup: use the quick start script, or run through a few steps!
  • πŸ”₯ GPU support: use your NVIDIA GPU to get even faster transcription times!
  • 🐎 CPU support: no GPU? No problem! Whishper can run on CPU too.

Roadmap

  • Local folder as media input (#15).
  • Full-text search all transcriptions.
  • User authentication.
  • Audio recording from the browser.
  • Add insanely-fast-whisper as an optional backend (#53).
  • Support for GPU acceleration.
    • Non NVIDIA GPU support. Is it possible with faster-whisper?
  • Can we do something with seamless_communication?

Project structure

Whishper is a collection of pieces that work together. The three main pieces are:

  • Transcription-API: This is the API that enables running Faster-Whisper. You can find it in the transcription-api folder.
  • Whishper-Backend: This is the backend that coordinates frontend calls, database, and tasks. You can find it in backend folder.
  • Whishper-Frontend: This is the frontend (web UI) of the application. You can find it in frontend folder.
  • Translation (3rd party): This is the libretranslate container that is used for translating subtitles.
  • MongoDB (3rd party): This is the database that stores all the information about your transcriptions.
  • Nginx (3rd party): This is the proxy that allows running everything from a single domain.
