It also has a few other additional features, such as automatically inserting the transcription into the active input field, and copying the transcription to your clipboard π.

π‘οΈ Privacy
By default this extension uses OpenAIβs Whisper API to transcribe your recordings. Whisper from OpenAI provides fast transcriptions of a wide range of languages. The extension only sends data to OpenAI for transcription services if you provide an OpenAI API key. No data is sent to OpenAI or any other third party without you providing an API key for the service.
If you have Whisper locally installed or want to use another transcription service (compatible with OpenAI API) you can change the API endpoint and API key to use your local one.
The only data that is stored permanently in the browser are the settings including the API key.
Feel free to check out the GitHub Repository yourself - it is open source.
π Browser compatibility
The extension has been tested with Chrome on Windows to be working. By using the webextension-polyfill library of mozilla.org it should also be compatible with Firefox though.
