v0.3.0: Faster Transcribe and Synced Voice Memo Titles
Fresh voice memos now jump to the front of the queue instead of waiting behind hours of backlog. Custom titles from Voice Memos show up where you can read them. A live view of the queue tells you exactly when your latest recording is next. Plus: an Abort button, smarter defaults, and an MCP server for Claude Code.
How Fast Is My Transcriber on Your Mac?
Whisper transcription speed across Mac hardware, the cliff most Intel users don't know about, and the bench script so you can verify on your own machine. A 1-hour file in 2 minutes on M1 Max, ~58 minutes on Intel i9.
The Accept-and-Delete Workflow: Why Your Voice Memos Shouldn't Pile Up
Most people have hundreds of untranscribed voice memos. The accept-and-delete workflow keeps your transcript and removes the audio — so recordings never pile up.
v0.2.0: Native Mac App
A complete rewrite as a native Mac app, plus a long list of bug fixes. Same all-local Whisper transcription, same data folder, more at home on macOS. Plus: an Intel default that's about 1.9× faster.
Using Voice Memos for Meeting Notes Without Recording Software
You don't need Otter, Fireflies, or any cloud recording tool. Two people on a call can each hit record on their Apple Watch and reconcile later.

Whisper AI with Metal GPU acceleration, background catch-up processing, and automatic Voice Memos watching. Here's how it all fits together.

How to Share Voice Transcriptions with Your Team
Set up a shared folder where everyone's voice memos land as searchable markdown. Each person gets their own account subfolder. No extra software needed.

My Transcriber vs MacWhisper vs Apple Voice Memos
