VoxScribe lets you dictate in Arabic into any Windows app. It runs OpenAI's Whisper on your own PC, so it works with no internet, needs no account, and never uploads your voice.
Free & open source (MIT) · Windows 10/11 · works with any microphone
Text goes in as normal keystrokes, so it works in browsers, chat apps, documents and editors. How right-to-left text looks on screen depends on the app you are typing into.
Whisper handles Arabic, but accuracy depends on the model size and on the dialect you speak. Smaller models make more mistakes in Arabic than in English. Start with Small, the default, and try a larger model if you need more accuracy. If a sentence comes out wrong, press F8 within two minutes and VoxScribe reruns it on a more careful model and corrects the text.
The speech model runs on your computer. Audio is transcribed and discarded locally, and it is never sent to a server. After the one-time model download, dictation works with the internet off.
Yes. Arabic is one of the dictation languages you can choose in Settings. VoxScribe uses Whisper's multilingual models, so the same app that dictates English can dictate Arabic.
Accuracy in Arabic depends on the model size and on the dialect. Smaller models make more mistakes in Arabic than in English, so start with Small or larger and test it with your own voice.
Choose one dictation language at a time. With the optional Pro upgrade you can give a second hold-to-talk key its own language, so one key dictates Arabic and the other English without opening Settings. Mixing both languages inside a single sentence is not something to rely on yet.
Yes. The multilingual model downloads once and then runs on your computer with no internet, and your audio is not uploaded.
