What is the best on-device voice transcription app for macOS?
Hello.
Recently I bought my first Apple Silicon Mac, powered by an M5 and 32GB of RAM. And I'm eager to start using the power of local AI models.
One of the tasks I've always wanted to do on my old Intel Mac was accurate voice transcription. And now, thanks to Apple Silicon and LLMs, this is possible. So here are my requests for the app:
- No subscription based. I want to pay once.
- Local transcription, on device, for privacy.
- No heavily AI coded apps. I understand nowadays all software are AI assisted to some extent, but no vibe coded apps please.
- Different languages aside from just English.
Optional:
- Better if I can choose among different models, such as Apple's own on-device transcription engine, or Nvidia Parakeet, aside from the typical Whisper engine.
- Diarization. It would be wonderful if it had it but I know not many apps have it.
I know of MacWhisper, from Jordi Bruin, as that's the best known of all, but with it, I have always the same doubt: Mac App Store version or web version... Mac App Store is great for payment and convenience, and overall I prefer it, but the dev says the website version usually has more features...
Aside from MacWhisper, if you know of any other interesting transcription app that may meet the requirements stated above, just let me know! I want the best transcription software to date!

Launching my third app tomorrow and I'm more wound up about it than I expected to be
The other two never did this to me. The first was an Adobe plugin years ago, and if it broke nobody's day got worse. The second, a battery app, is fairly simple in design and was more for fun.
My upcoming one will require a real commitment from me, so its build has been far more involved than the previous. And so all this is making me a bit more nervous.
What did all of you do the night before to calm your nerves? I'll take anything.

Best transcription app with Speaker Diarization
My job involves talking to clients over the phone or in-person. It's a critical part of my work. Everything discussed and who said what needs to be recorded in a word document. Having a conversation that flows naturally and allows me to think on my feet while typing doesn't come easy for me. I use a Macbook M2 and an iPhone 16 and calls can be made/answered on both.
My mandatory requirements are:
Diarization / speaker detection to seperate who said what (a popular one I trialled often joined sentences from speaker 1 and speaker 2)
Local transcription and total privacy. Conversation or text stays with me.
Hot-key / short cut start and stop
Inexpensive
Bluetooth support so that I can take calls on a headset or buds
Optional (nice but no critical):
It knows my voice
Integration with Claude
Real time speech to text
I am aware of the Mac App Comparison table but I am looking for real-life experience and what users consider to be best value for money. Free is good but inexpensive is okay as well.
Thank you for any suggestions that meet my user case.
