About Whisper-WebUI
Whisper-WebUI is a Gradio-based web interface for creating subtitles and transcripts with Whisper. You can choose between openai/whisper, faster-whisper (the default) and insanely-fast-whisper, and feed it files, YouTube links or microphone input. Output is SRT, WebVTT or plain text.
It can translate speech to English, translate subtitle files with NLLB models or the DeepL API, filter audio with Silero VAD, separate background music with UVR, and label speakers with pyannote. It runs through Pinokio, Docker or install scripts.
Strengths
- Choice of three Whisper implementations
- Exports SRT, WebVTT and plain text
- Subtitle translation with NLLB or DeepL
- Speaker diarization and background music removal
Limitations
- Speaker diarization needs a Hugging Face token and accepted model terms
- DeepL translation needs an external API key
