Apple's on-device transcription model is about 3x slower than their reported results on my more powerful computer, with a similar error rate in my test (which I consider pretty good results)
I'll test theirs too if I get around to it
Here's a sample CLI wrapping the apple model and providing a simple benchmark: https://github.com/llimllib/transcribe
update: doesn't seem like they provide their model and I don't feel like trying to dig it out of their app bundle, so I'm not going to test this one
With MacWhisper you can select the Apple models, it took almost 4x as long to transcribe the same file versus this software and MacWhisper/Parakeet3.
Is it even worth using apple's? Maybe they have improved it but when they first started using it to transcribe voice memos it was laughably bad (in my experience). I defaulted to whisper.cpp
