audio2text 0.1.0 is the first stable release for Windows/Linux x86_64.
Provides guided initialization, remembered storage locations, download progress, Qwen3-ASR/faster-whisper model management, offline file/batch transcription and JSON output for agents. Includes the Windows faster-whisper CUDA worker-exit fix from beta.6.
Download the platform executable or installer and verify SHA256SUMS. After npm publication, install with npm install -g audio2text-cli --registry=https://registry.npmjs.org, then run audio2text init for first-time setup. Upgrading an existing installation reuses its models, runtimes and configuration.
Installation and automated checks cover both platforms. Windows CUDA transcription has been checked on real hardware, and Linux transcription has been tested by the maintainer. These checks do not cover every model/GPU configuration. Natural-speech accuracy benchmarks remain future work; review mixed-language output. See the versioned README for usage and limitations.
