Hello everyone. This is Yujong from the Hyprnote team (GitHub - fastrepl/hyprnote: Local-first AI Notepad for Private Meetings).
We built OWhisper for 2 reasons: (Also outlined in What is OWhisper? - Hyprnote Docs)
(1). While working with on-device, realtime speech-to-text, we found there isn't tooling that exists to download / run the model in a practical way.
(2). Also, we got frequent requests to provide a way to plug in custom STT endpoints to the Hyprnote desktop app, just like doing it with OpenAI-compatible LLM endpoints.
The (2) part is still kind of WIP, but we spent some time writing docs so you'll get a good idea of what it will look like if you skim through them.
For (1) - You can try it now. (Get Started - Hyprnote Docs)
If you're tired of Whisper, we also support Moonshine 
Give it a shot (owhisper pull moonshine-onnx-base-q8)
We're here and looking forward to your comments!
