Language Models (LLM)

Speech-to-Text (STT)

  • All STT models are stored in ~/Library/Application Support/hyprnote/models/stt/
  • The built-in whisper-cpp backend is now an optional compile-time feature. Production builds on macOS Apple Silicon use the Argmax sidecar by default. Whisper-cpp quantized models have been removed from the settings UI.
