Your voice stays yours

Local Transcription

Record up to 30 seconds with your microphone or upload a short clip, and a small open-source speech model turns it into text — entirely inside your browser, in English, German, or auto-detected.

A short excerpt from JFK’s inaugural address. Loading this clip does not download the model.

“And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you — ask what you can do for your country.” Actual model output may differ.

Your audio stays in this browser and is never sent to Best-AI.org or any other server. The model is fetched once from its disclosed source, then inference runs fully offline on your device.

What this experiment can do

Short, clear speech becomes searchable text with word-level segments you can copy. It is a tiny model (39M parameters), not a professional transcription service — accents, music, overlapping voices, and background noise all reduce accuracy.
