Yours isn't OSS, meaning I have no idea what I'm running

OSS would be incredibly slow, also seems like overkill for this use case

the obnoxious site deisgn and comments like this stopped me from clicking buy in the apple store

Uses liquidGlass fairly heavily- just design reasons-- I'm happy to expand compatibility

At $3.99 this was an instant buy for me until the App Store told me I couldn't. I think the venn diagram between HN users and those holding off on Tahoe is probably a pretty big overlap. ;-)

Same! I was trying to buy but wasn't able to.

How does it compare to MacWhisper?

MacWhisper crashes at about an hour of context. This uses, smart, invisible regex in the text generation pipe. Makes this fast. + bonus, there is no context limit

This is not true. (I've been a MacWhisper user since 2023. I have two bugs during that time, which the author addressed quickly.)

I am a MacWhisper Pro user, and I successfully transcribed and translated a 15-hour course inside the app without any issues

Question: can it discern (and label) different speakers? If so, could you kindly share the limit on speakers per video?

MacWhisper Pro supports this, if your need for this is time-sensitive. https://macwhisper.helpscoutdocs.com/article/32-automatic-sp...

Seems like a great app, but I have to ask: https://scriberpro.cc/about/ Are you trolling people with this page's design? Unreadable colors AND a wobble effect? :D

I honestly thought it would be nothing more than a fun little easter egg, Red was a bold choice I admit. ! I will making a css update soon

They also mean the 3D effect (and there's also a blur one)

One thing that Rev and other online services have as well as MacWhisper is a good interface for editing the text to correct inevitable errors. Being able to click on the text and have it sync to the correct place in the audio is a must for my use case of transcribing interviews. Also speaker diarization.
