Qwen Scribe: The Free Otter.ai Alternative That Never Uploads

Transcript

Transcribing recordings usually means uploading them to someone else's servers. qwen-scribe runs Qwen3-ASR locally on your Mac's Metal GPU, no account or API key. Drag in audio or video for automatic language detection, word timestamps, SRT export, and searchable local history. Hold right Command in any text field, speak, and it pastes your words at the cursor.
