# ✍ [FREE TOOL] VIBE — Audio To Text Offline, No Internet Needed After First Install

Got an hour of lecture audio, a Zoom recording, a YouTube video, or a voice memo you need turned into text? **Vibe** does it for free. Drop the file in, hit transcribe, get the text back. The whole thing runs on your laptop — **your audio never leaves the device**.

🌐 **Grab it (Win / Mac / Linux):** [https://thewh1teagle.github.io/vibe/](https://thewh1teagle.github.io/vibe/)

# 🎙 The 30-second version

It’s a free desktop app that does what those _“$10/month upload your audio”_ sites do — but **offline**. First time you open it, Vibe downloads a small **AI brain** (the file that does the listen-and-write part — think: a recipe book it reads from) onto your computer. After that, no internet needed.

# 🧰 What it eats

- 🎤 MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, MOV — basically anything audio or video
- 🗂 Folders of files at once
- 🔗 YouTube links (paste, hit transcribe)
- 🎙 Live mic recording (record-and-transcribe right there)

# 🛠 The 3-click flow

1. Pick the file
2. Pick the language
3. Hit **Transcribe**

Text appears below. Edit, copy, save as `.txt`, `.srt` (subtitle file — for video captions), or `.docx`.

> 💡 Clean audio = near-perfect output. Heavy accents or noisy background = still useful, but expect to clean it up. Same as any AI transcription.

# 🤐 Why this beats the cloud sites

| Vibe | Cloud sites |
| --- | --- |
| Free forever | $5–$20/month |
| Audio stays on your PC | Audio uploaded to their servers |
| Offline once installed | Needs internet every time |
| Open-source (code is public) | Black box |

What’s the first hour of audio you’d run through it?
