am I not getting it correctly; it says local is possible but can't find any information about how to run it without any api key?
I get the whispers models, and do what? how to run in a device without internet, no documentation about it...

Commented this earlier, but I'm in the middle of a release that adds Whisper C++ support! https://github.com/epicenter-so/epicenter/pull/655
After this pushes, we'll have far more extensive local transcription support. Just fixing a few more small things :)
Awesome, this takes Whispering from something I'd probably not bother with to something I'd consider integrating into my daily workflow. Thanks very much for the tool!
The docs are pretty clear that you need to use speaches if you want entirely local operation.

It’s not very clear, rather just a small mention. Given OP’s extensive diatribe about local-first, the fact that it prefers online providers is quite a big miss tbh.
Yeah I agree, I neglected to update the docs and demo. This post was made anticipating the local transcription feature to drop earlier but it took some time due to some bugs. Before, the default option was using Groq for transcription, but that was admittedly before I figured out local transcription and wanted something to work in the meantime. Will be changing local as the default strategy in the documentation.
Yeah, apologies, I did read through the vast majority of the readme before replying. I realize this is not common at all.
Agreed.
On the other hand, kudos to developer, already working to make it happen!
