Whisper Turbo is a lightning-fast, cross-platform Whisper implementation, designed to run entirely client-side on your browser or electron app. Powered by Rust, WebAssembly & WebGPU, you can see ~20x real-time speeds.
Being client-side, Whisper-Turbo offers a few key benefits:
- Real-time streaming (WIP) - simply speak into your microphone and watch the text appear in real-time like a sci-fi movie.
- Completely private & offline
- Free!*
WebGPU is only currently available on stable release Chrome Version >= 113. Firefox & Safari do not currently ship WebGPU.
Windows + MacOS are supported, Linux is not. Given that WebGPU is not supported on all platforms, we (intend to) offer the ability to provide your OAI key, so that 100% of your users have the best possible experience.
In alpha currently, use at your own risk.
npm install whisper-turbo
