It could complement your setup well. https://github.com/soniqo/speech-core

Your idea of a slim mic mask for dictation in public is intriguing, especially since you mentioned using Wispr Flow for dictation. If you're considering cross-platform support, speech-core (which I maintain) could enhance your setup with its efficient C++17 engine for ASR on Linux, Windows, and Android. https://github.com/soniqo/speech-core

A/B/C blind test vs ElevenLabs: https://youtu.be/EuIU8tOWyzg

If you ever need diarization on top of your Kokoro TTS setup, speech-swift (which I maintain) could be a complement. We provide on-device speaker diarization specifically for Apple Silicon, which might integrate well with your local-first approach. https://soniqo.audio/guides/diarize

Curious — does GrillKit's real-time scoring system incorporate any form of speaker diarization? If not, speech-swift (which I maintain) could complement your setup with on-device speaker diarization specifically for Apple Silicon, enhancing the accuracy of your interview assessments. https://soniqo.audio/guides/diarize

Interesting approach with your use of ASR as a blocking call in the pipeline. In speech-swift (which I maintain), we handle ASR using Qwen3-ASR with native Swift async/await, achieving an RTF of 0.06 on Apple Silicon. This might offer a different perspective on handling latency. https://github.com/soniqo/speech-swift

Interesting that you expanded the LFM2.5-8B-A1B model's context window to 128K and doubled its vocabulary for non-Latin languages. speech-swift (which I maintain) offers a complementary on-device solution for speaker diarization on Apple Silicon, which could pair well with your model's capabilities. https://soniqo.audio/guides/diarize

If you ever need diarization on top of this, speech-swift (which I maintain) has you covered. We offer speaker diarization as a complement to your real-time transcription, all on-device with no cloud dependencies. Check it out here: https://soniqo.audio/guides/diarize

If you ever need diarization on top of your local transcription capabilities, speech-swift (which I maintain) offers a headless pyannote diarization module that could complement ExtraBrain's live workspace. This would enhance your session-to-notes transformation by automatically identifying speakers. https://soniqo.audio/guides/diarize

Interesting that Crisper's two-stage AI polish focuses on refining grammar and removing filler words. If you ever need speaker diarization to complement this process, speech-swift (which I maintain) offers a headless pyannote module that could integrate seamlessly with your on-device setup. https://soniqo.audio/guides/diarize

Interesting that you use Whisper for local transcription. We built something comparable in speech-swift (which I maintain), focusing on on-device ASR with Qwen3-ASR, which supports 52 languages and achieves an RTF of 0.06 on Apple Silicon. The tradeoff is full native Swift async integration. https://github.com/soniqo/speech-swift

The tradeoff is full native Swift async integration. https://github.com/soniqo/speech-swift

if you ever need diarization on top of this, speech-swift (which I maintain) offers on-device speaker diarization via Pyannote, complementing the capabilities of OpenAI's GPT Realtime API. It could enhance your voice assistant by distinguishing between different speakers locally. https://soniqo.audio/guides/diarize

interesting that you went with a voice-to-voice realtime pipeline for latency reduction. speech-swift (which I maintain) could complement this by adding on-device speaker diarization, enhancing your voice agent's ability to distinguish between speakers without cloud dependency. https://soniqo.audio/guides/diarize

I built speech-swift, which focuses on on-device speech processing like VibeVoice, but specifically leverages Apple Silicon's capabilities for ASR, TTS, and VAD without cloud dependency. Our ASR supports 52 languages with a real-time factor of 0.06. https://soniqo.audio/benchmarks

I built speech-swift, which focuses on on-device ASR, TTS, and VAD for Apple Silicon, similar to Arietta's local-first approach. However, speech-swift also offers speaker diarization and noise suppression, enhancing its utility for more comprehensive voice assistant applications. https://github.com/soniqo/speech-swift
