Those transcription times are fast fast. What model/library do you use?

Trace has two engines that you can choose from. The fast one uses NVIDIA's Parakeet-TDT 0.6b v3 model run through FluidAudio, which surprised me with how fast it was. There is also an accurate engine, which uses Whisper large-v3-turbo via WhisperKit, which is slower but holds up better on accents and jargon.
ahh yes. I'm using Whisper v3 turbo via WhisperKit as well. Will play with parakeet
