Anyone using any reasonably good small speech to text os models?

I’m using whisper with superwhisper on my mac. I’ve assigned a key on my keyboard, when I press the key it starts listening and when I release it, the text gets copied to the current cursor location. It works pretty well.

Parakeet V3 is near-instant transcription, and the slight accuracy drop relative to the slower/bigger Whisper models is immaterial when talking to AIs that can “read between the lines”.

For my inputs, whisper distil-large-v3.5 is the best. I tried Parakeet 0.6 v3 last night but it has higher error rates than I'd like (but it is fast...)

Nice I'll try it, as of now for my personal stt workflow I use eleven labs api which is pretty generous but curious to play around with other options

oh I've been looking into whisper and vosk in the last few days. I'll probably go with whisper (with whisper.cpp) but has anyone compared it to vosk models?
