Wrong devices, a wrong description, or it isn't really open source? A mod reviews every suggestion.
What we couldn't confirm4
- Whether Buzz offers live or real-time transcription
- Which speech models and languages are supported beyond the README excerpt
- Whether the Windows, Linux and PyPI builds all share the same feature set
- Whether Buzz runs fully offline, since the README does not say so directly
