Introduction
LocalVocal lets you transcribe, locally on your machine, speech into text and simultaneously translate to any language. ✅ No GPU required, ✅ no cloud costs, ✅ no network and ✅ no downtime! Privacy first - all data stays on your machine.
The plugin runs OpenAI's Whisper to process real-time speech and predict a transcription, utilizing Whisper.cpp from ggerganov to run the model efficiently on CPUs and GPUs. Translation is done with CTranslate2.
