Whisper Snapper

Drop a podcast episode, a recorded meeting or an MP4 interview onto Whisper Snapper and get a timestamped transcript with each speaker labeled.

Whisper Snapper is a Mac AI transcription app that turns video and audio into text, using either local models that run offline or cloud models when you want results faster.

The local option is the main draw if your recordings are private, since nothing has to leave your computer and the app does not require an account.

Speaker identification (diarization) separates voices in conversations.

It accepts MP4, MOV, M4A, MP3 and WAV files, which covers most video, podcast and voice memo sources.

Export options matter here too.

You can save a transcript as SRT for subtitles, Markdown for notes, PDF for sharing, and other formats.

That makes Whisper Snapper work as both a transcriber and a basic subtitle generator.

It is Mac only, so Windows users will need to look elsewhere.
