2-3 years old Android flagship phone with 8 GB RAM. When I looked for an app for parakeet, I think I also came across iOS apps. Don't recall it since I use Android.
Seems light on the phone/battery. Don't observe any drain but I also only record shorter transcripts at once.
Side note: Parakeet is actually pretty nice to do meetings with oneself. Did that on a computer while driving for an hour (split in several transcript chunks). Processed the raw meeting notes afterwards with an LLM. Effective use of the time in the car...
- agentifysh 8mo agoThank you for sharing ! What about the quality of the transcripts? Is it able to do live streaming?
- fittingopposite 8mo agoUnfortunately, Parakeet doesn't support streaming like Moonshot does (as much as I know). Would be perfect to have sth of the size of Parakeet but supporting streaming. Still hope Nvidia releases a V4 with that feature :) Otherwise, I think STT is basically a solved problem running locally on edge devices.
- Leftium 7mo agoI think there is a streaming version of Parakeet. It is often referred to as Nemotron, though. I tried comparing Parakeet streaming with Moonshine streaming. Moonshine is smaller, and I felt it was subjectively faster with about the same level of accuracy.
