Hi everyone!
A few days ago I released Whishper, a new version of a project I’ve been working for about a year now.
It’s a self-hosted audio transcription suite, you can transcribe audio to text, generate subtitles, translate subtitles and edit them all from one UI and 100% locally (it even works offline).
I hope you like it, check out the website for self-hosting instructions: https://whishper.net
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.
Rules:
Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
No trolling.

Does this need to connect to openai or does it function fully independently? Its for offline use.
No, it’s completely independent, it does not rely on any third-party APIs or anything else. It can function entirely offline once the models have been downloaded.
The readme mentions “transcription time on CPU” so it’s probably running locally
