Open the original- What it measures
- The engine table on VocaMac's home page, which lists each engine's model, engine, download size and note. VocaMac's privacy policy says its audio is transcribed by a speech model on the user's own computer, so the count applies to on-device use.
- What it does not show
- The page gives a count, not a list of which languages work best. The same page says to check the release notes for language and macOS requirements, so the count can change between releases. The sherpa-onnx row for the same model in this dataset lists 25 languages, one fewer than this page's count.
