README

A Whisper CLI, built with Rust

crates.io download count badge docs.rs

This project attempts to build a simple Whisper CLI with Rust, to replace the base Python one. It uses whisper.cpp under the hood, making it significantly faster on M1 systems.

Installation

You can download the binary corresponding to your OS from the latest release, or build it from scratch with cargo install whisper_cli.

Run from anywhere

Put the whisper binary in /usr/local/bin on Unix systems (Mac/Linux) & make sure it has permissions to execute (use chmod +x whisper in terminal.)

Close & Re-open the terminal to test it by typing whisper --help. It should output the following.

Usage
