Vibe – Free Open-Source Audio and Video Transcription Service

 

Vibe is an auto transcription service that utilizes local language learning models (LLMs) or artificial intelligence to provide transcriptions for a wide range of languages. The service prioritizes user privacy by offering fully offline transcription, ensuring that no data ever leaves the user's device.

The user-friendly design allows for seamless transcribing of audio and video files, with the added functionality of batch transcribing multiple files at once. Vibe supports various file formats such as SRT, VTT, TXT, HTML, PDF, and JSON. The real-time preview feature enables users to view transcriptions as they are being processed.

Additionally, Vibe offers translation to English from any supported language and direct printing of transcripts to any printer. The service is optimized for CPU and GPU usage on various operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and macOS. Advanced users can customize models via settings and use model arguments for more nuanced transcriptions. Vibe also supports transcribing system audio and microphone inputs, as well as CLI support for command line interface usage.
