I built a MacOS app with whisper.cpp and VAD

I really like to make voice memos, and think having some transcripts will be useful.

I put it on the app store

It's also on Show HN now. (exact link: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34964301)

Also WisprNote on Product Hunt

I want to thank @ggerganov who replied to my comment about prompt settings which helped me understand his work more.

Funny over on the Silero VAD discussion I see folks worrying that Whisper.cpp is slow. Actually is super fast! I don't know why they have this out-dated or incorrect perspective on it. Speed is not an issue at all with Whisper.cpp. The @ggerganov is the bomb! Major good work! ❤️

How did you convert Silero Vad to coreml? I've been trying to get this in coreml voor quite some time now.

I can't remember now, but I recall that part was complex. IIRC I ended up using ONNX? I think. Best of luck with that!! 😆
