Buzz pros and cons

Runs fully offline on your own machine, keeping audio private
Permissive MIT license
Handles files, YouTube links, and live microphone transcription
Exports to TXT, SRT, and VTT, with speaker identification and a watch-folder option
Accuracy and speed depend on the Whisper model size and your hardware; larger models need a capable GPU
Whisper's translation feature outputs English, so it is not a general any-to-any translator
Installers are unsigned, so Windows and macOS show security warnings on first run
