Open the original- What it measures
- Read from VoiceWink's own home page on October 26, 2026. The FAQ answer refers to Whisper, the speech engine that runs on the user's PC. The same page's feature table says Parakeet covers 25 European languages, and its home page also says 'Supports 100 languages.'
- What it does not show
- Parakeet, the other built-in engine, covers 25 European languages, and the app recommends it first. A user who keeps Parakeet gets the smaller list. The 100 figure is the Whisper engine's coverage, as the page describes it.
