Speech models
Pick a model in Settings → Dictation. All of them run on your computer.
Parakeet (built in)
Comes with NeuroSquad and is used by default. Fast on any computer and accurate enough for everyday dictation. Supports English and major European languages, including Russian.
Whisper large-v3-turbo
A one-time download. Noticeably better with accents, background noise and punctuation, but slower on an ordinary processor.
Whisper with GPU (faster-whisper)
The same Whisper model, made fast by an NVIDIA graphics card: ten minutes of speech in a few seconds. Needs a one-time extra install, offered right there in Settings. Windows only.
Don’t have an NVIDIA card? Stay with Parakeet — it’s the right choice for most people.
