noScribe: new App for transcribing interviews, with speaker detection

[kaixxx]

>>> noScribe on GitHub

The main purpose of this app is to transcribe interviews for qualitative research or journalistic use. It uses whisper.cpp for transcription and pyannote to identify different speakers. It also includes a nice MS Word-interface to review, verify and correct the resulting transcript.

The main goal was to create an easy-to-use interface for my students and other non techie people (like my colleagues from the humanities department ;) ). Take a look, I appreciate any reactions or suggestions! Also: Please spread the word if you know people that might benefit from this app.

For now, the app is running on windows only (installer included). But I would really appreciate any help in bringing this to mac and linux too. It’s all open source (GPL-3.0), programmed in python and prepared for cross-platform support (see here for more info).

Thank you, OpenAI, for making these great models available!
