Vibe Transcribe

Vibe is a local-first transcription app for audio and video that runs processing on the user's own device rather than sending files to a cloud API. It can transcribe local files, URLs, and live recordings, and pairs the transcript with AI-generated summaries and multilingual language support. The app is open source, distributed for Windows with source available on GitHub, and is positioned around privacy — since transcription happens locally, recordings and text never have to leave the user's machine. User feedback highlighted on its site includes accessibility uses such as generating captions for hearing-impaired students and processing footage exported from other video players.
