What is Buzz Captions?
Buzz Captions is an offline audio transcription and translation tool powered by OpenAI's Whisper model. It allows users to import audio and video files to generate transcripts in CSV, SRT, TXT and VTT formats. The software also enables live transcription and translation from a computer's microphones for over 90 supported languages. While audio transcription is resource intensive and may not be real-time, Buzz Captions is available for Windows, Linux and macOS in both a classic open-source version and a native macOS app, offering users flexible transcription options.
Comments and Reviews
Just tried on Linux Mint. It's free, and is available for purchase on Mac if one so desires. Otherwise, it is FOSS. Works really well so far, best local and free audio transcription tool I've ever used so far.
