I tried out
Moonshine for speech-to-text. It took only five minutes to transcribe thirty minutes of audio on my laptop, though the fans were blasting. Still, that's in the realm of usable. And it claims:Moonshine processes 10-second audio segments 5x faster than Whisper while maintaining the same (or better!) WER.
So, this project might live?
But then I have to think about how I would install Moonshine on a user's machine. I really have no idea.
