I recently laid off and currently trying to build some apps that could create some revenue that can afford my costs for some weeks. I built a transcription and dictation app for Mac [0] using whisper.cpp, small model works really well on 2019 mpb and m1 for streaming (dictation). It was really straight forward to use, however the streaming algorithm doesn't ready for production so I implement my own algorithm using VAD. I believe in that with that pace this could also be fixed.
