How it works

  1. Install the extension and open its side panel.
  2. Drop in a file and pick an engine — the fast cloud pass, or the on-device model that uploads nothing.
  3. Copy the transcript, or export it as TXT or SRT.

FAQ

Which languages are recognised?
Both engines are multilingual and detect the spoken language automatically. The Pro engine holds up better on harder recordings; the local one keeps the file on your machine.
Does it work offline?
The local engine does, once the model has been downloaded: the first run fetches it, and after that it needs no network. The Pro engine is a cloud service, so it does not.
