Whisper in the browser · diarization built in · any OS

A Whisper GUI that's just a web page.

Buzz, MacWhisper, and the other desktop wrappers all solve the same problem: Whisper has no interface. They solve it with an app you install, configure, and keep updated per machine. We solve it with a URL that works everywhere, including the laptop you don't own.

What you get

What a Whisper interface should actually do.

Nothing to manage

No app to download, no model weights to pick, no version to keep current, no separate install on the desktop and the laptop. Open the page and the newest engine is already the one running.

Speaker turns, not a wall of text

Most desktop Whisper wrappers give you exactly what the model gives them: continuous text with no idea who was talking. Diarization runs on every job here, so interviews and panels arrive already split by speaker.

An editor, not just a viewer

Click any word to jump the audio to that moment. Fix a misheard name once and every export — SRT, VTT, DOCX — carries the correction. That round-trip is the whole reason to want a GUI.

Not limited to one machine

Desktop wrappers are per-machine and mostly Mac-first. This runs anywhere with a browser: Windows, Linux, a Chromebook, a borrowed laptop, a phone on the train. Your library follows the account, not the hardware.

Desktop wrapper vs browser

Two ways to put a face on Whisper.

✗ A desktop Whisper app

Genuinely good software, and fully offline once it's set up. The costs are per-machine setup, model downloads, and a diarization story that's usually missing or bolted on.

Download and install per machine
Pick and fetch model weights yourself
Mostly Mac-only
Speaker labels often absent
Your laptop does the compute — and heats up

✓ Whipscribe in the browser

Same Whisper engine, no installation surface at all, and diarization on by default.

Open a URL — that's the install
Engine is always the current one
Mac, Windows, Linux, phones
pyannote speaker labels on every job
GPU compute, so your fan stays quiet

Sample output

Speaker-labelled. Click-to-seek. Exportable.

What comes back from a two-person recording: turns, timings, and text you can click into.

transcript · whipscribe.com/view/whisper-gui

SPEAKER 1 00:01:02 I tried three of the desktop ones before this. They all worked, honestly — it was the maintenance that got me.

SPEAKER 2 00:01:11 Maintenance meaning updates?

SPEAKER 1 00:01:14 Updates, and having it on the desktop but not the laptop, and re-downloading two gigabytes of weights on a hotel wifi.

SPEAKER 2 00:01:23 That last one is very specific and very believable.

FAQ

Whisper GUI questions, answered.

How is this different from Buzz or MacWhisper?

Those are desktop apps that run Whisper on your own hardware — genuinely good, fully offline, and free or one-time-paid. The trade-offs are per-machine installation, managing model weights yourself, Mac-first support, and usually no speaker diarization. This runs in a browser on any OS with diarization on by default, at the cost of your audio leaving the machine.

Does it work offline?

No — this is a hosted service, so it needs a connection. If offline is a hard requirement, a local desktop wrapper is genuinely the right answer and we publish honest write-ups of the main ones in our tools directory.

Can I still get the raw Whisper output?

Yes. Export JSON and you get the segment and word-level timing data, including confidence, in a structure you can process yourself. TXT, SRT, VTT, and DOCX are there too.

Do I need an account?

Yes — transcription runs on credit packs tied to your account. Packs are one-time purchases ($4 for 300 minutes to start), there's no subscription, and your library persists between sessions.

What about long files?

Up to 5 GB and 12 hours per file. Long recordings queue and keep processing if you close the tab — the job is server-side, not in your browser.

No download. Just open it.
