Scriberr

What it does

Runs entirely offline on your own server or machine, with a web UI for managing recordings and editing transcripts and an API for automation — the fit for meetings you cannot upload anywhere. Docker deployment; long audio wants patience and hardware. The author has publicly paused development for personal reasons, describing the project as paused rather than abandoned and welcoming contributors, so expect no fixes or features in the near term.

Scriberr FAQ

Is Scriberr free?

Yes. It runs on your own machine, so there is no usage-based cost either.

Do I need to install anything or write code to use Scriberr?

It needs the command line. If you are not comfortable typing commands, expect to get stuck during setup.

Does Scriberr work on a phone?

No. It needs a computer.

Can I use Scriberr commercially?

The licence is MIT, which permits commercial use. Conditions such as keeping the copyright notice still apply, so read the licence text before shipping it inside something.
