Under the hood

A native core, not a wrapper

SweetWhisper is not an Electron shell around a cloud API. It is a native Rust application that runs neural networks right on your GPU — any GPU: NVIDIA, AMD or Intel.

Engines
Whisper (GGML), Parakeet and GigaAM (ONNX) — switch in two clicks
GPU
Vulkan + DirectML: runs on NVIDIA, AMD and Intel with no CUDA dependency
Core
Rust + Tauri: a single ~90 MB app, no background services
Accuracy
Your own correction dictionary, plus a filter that drops the phantom phrases Whisper sometimes invents in silence
LLM post-processing
Optional text post-processing with a local model — offline too
Open models
All models are open (MIT / Apache-2.0 / CC-BY), licenses listed in the app

Interface

One window instead of a maze of settings

Model, speed, hotkeys and text insertion — all in one place. It checks your microphone, model and hotkey for you and tells you when you’re ready to dictate.
