WakaScribe · La Chevrolière, France
What it is
WakaScribe is dictation software that combines on-device offline speech processing with cloud recognition. Local mode uses NVIDIA Parakeet, while cloud mode uses Whisper Large V3 Turbo. Dictated text can be inserted into browsers, word processors, messaging apps, code editors, and business tools through system-level integration. Users can choose Cool, Normal, or Formal writing styles, create personal dictionaries, and give voice instructions to translate, summarize, rephrase, correct, extract key points, or shorten and expand selected text. Local mode supports major European languages; cloud mode supports over 100 languages and dialects with automatic detection. The FAQ says local processing sends no sound, text, or computer data, while enterprise audio in cloud mode is deleted after transcription. Business mode includes synchronized team dictionaries and settings hosted in Europe. The maker describes its infrastructure as designed according to ISO 27001 standards and says business mode uses HDS and European hosting under GDPR requirements. Local mode is free forever; Business mode is listed at €1 a month per user. Listed platforms include macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android.
