WhisperDictation v1.0.2

Speed Improvements

  • Quantized models (Q5): 2-3x smaller and faster with near-identical accuracy
    • Small Q5: 181 MB (vs 466 MB full) -- recommended default
    • Base Q5: 57 MB -- fastest option
    • Medium Q5: 515 MB -- best accuracy
  • Voice Activity Detection (VAD): Silero VAD model auto-trims silence before inference
  • Adaptive decoding: Beam search on Apple Silicon (GPU), greedy on Intel (CPU)

Accuracy Improvements

  • Temperature fallback: Retries with higher temperature on low-confidence results
  • Hallucination suppression: Regex filter blocks common Whisper artifacts ("Thank you", etc.)
  • Context carry-over: Uses previous transcription context for better multi-sentence accuracy
  • Grammar correction: 100+ developer term auto-casing (api->API, javascript->JavaScript)
