WHAT IS IT?
Murmure is a privacy-focused speech-to-text dictation app that turns your voice into text entirely on your own machine. No network connection, no data collection: all processing happens locally. It's built for dictating into your AI tools, taking notes or capturing an idea on the fly, without relying on the cloud.
WHY IS IT INTERESTING?
- Fully local: all processing happens on your device, no data ever leaves the machine. Zero telemetry, zero tracking.
- Modern model: powered by NVIDIA's Parakeet TDT 0.6B v3 neural network for fast, accurate transcription.
- Multilingual: supports 25 European languages (English, French, German, Spanish, and more).
- Low latency: near-instant transcription directly on-device, with no server round-trip.
- Cross-platform: available on Windows (MSI/WinGet), Linux (Debian/AppImage) and macOS (Intel/ARM), with a fully inspectable open-source codebase.
USE CASES
- Dictate prompts into an AI tool without going through a cloud transcription service.
- Take quick voice notes converted straight into usable text.
- Capture an idea on the fly with no internet connection.
- Write in multiple European languages by voice, without exposing the content.
