## Voice-to-Text (almost) anywhere in Chrome using OpenAI Whisper API 🚀



Just click ctrl+alt+r to start/stop recording and the extension will use OpenAI Whisper API to transcribe your voice and paste the transcription at the current caret position. 🎉



This repository is a fork of https://github.com/Ordinath/Whisper_to_ChatGPT  

I don't know much about web development, and I've spent only a few hours on this extension, so it might still be a little buggy and slow, but mostly it works!



## ✨ Features



- 🎤 Record and transcribe your voice on-the-fly using OpenAI's Whisper API

- ⌨ Configurable keyboard shortcut to quickly start/stop the recording.

- 🔧 Customize the prompt for better API voice recognition results

- 💬 Support for multiple Whisper API prompts for versatile transcription contexts

- 🌍 Implicit translation support for transcribing and translating your input to English

- 💾 Download your transcriptions as sound files for further use

- 🌐 Use the extension with main inputs on chat.openai.com and edit-inputs (Not tested in this fork).

- 📌 Snippets feature (in beta) for quickly pasting frequently used text in the ChatGPT text area (Not tested in this fork).



## 🔧 How to Build and Run Locally



To run the extension locally in your Chrome browser, follow these steps:



1. Download or clone the repository from GitHub: `git clone https://github.com/redocrepus/Whisper-Paste.git`

2. Install the dependencies by running `npm install` in the project folder **(I've verify that it works with Node.JS v16.5.0, but it also might work with later versions. It did not work for me with the latest version.)**

3. Run `npm run build` to build the app for production to the build folder

4. Open Google Chrome and navigate to chrome://extensions

5. Enable "Developer mode" by toggling the switch in the top-right corner

6. Click on "Load unpacked" button and select the build folder created in step 3

7. The extension should now appear in your list of installed extensions

8. Click the extension's button (microphone) to configure.



## 🔑 API Key Disclaimer



This extension requires an OpenAI account with a valid API key to function properly. OpenAI provides a small amount of free credits for all accounts, which is more than enough to use the Whisper API in ChatGPT and enjoy the extension's features.
