A stenographer that lives on your machine.

Cloud services charge by the minute and read your audio on their servers. Vertano does the same work locally, for nothing. Here is the full case.

Exhibit A: Private

Nothing leaves your machine

Your audio and transcripts are processed and stored locally, every time. Airplane mode works just fine.

Folders, not files

Point it at a year of voice memos. Vertano queues everything, works through the list, and skips duplicates automatically.

Urdu → English, built in

First-class Urdu support with one-tap translation to English, or keep the original script. 100 languages in total.

Any audio you have

wav, mp3, m4a, flac, opus, voice memos, even the audio from your videos.

Exhibit E: Free

$0, no strings

Open source. No account, no trial, no meter. The speech model downloads once and is yours to keep, in whichever size you choose.
