I helped coding oTranscribe+ [0], which does something similar to what you are asking for. Using ElectronJS and the current, at that moment, version of oTranscribe, there is this desktop application. It also exists as web version and PWA [1].

Language models were those from BSC (Barcelona Supercomputing Center) at the time. The transcription is done via WASM, using Vosk [2] as base.

I hope it fits.

Is there a way to get it to punctuate? Or does it only jot down words?


It does not punctuate. It just transcribes what is in an audio stream.


Punctuating is enough of the hard work of generating a transcript that it's not very useful to me without this, unfortunately. What use cases are you planning for where the words themselves are the desired output?


It is just an improvement of oTranscribe. It makes transcription easier, since you only have to polish the result, revising and punctuating it.
