How to transcribe Gujarati with Vibe

  1. Install Vibe from the download page.
  2. Download a multilingual Whisper model sized for your computer—often Large is a good anchor.
  3. Set language to gu for more consistent results than auto-detect.
  4. Import your file (or use supported URL flows if you use them).
  5. Export to SRT, TXT, DOCX, or another format you need.

Accuracy notes

Gujarati uses its own unique Gujarati script, distinct from Devanagari. The Large model is required for reliable transcription. Always specify 'gu' as the language — auto-detect frequently misidentifies Gujarati as Hindi. Clear articulation and minimal background noise significantly improves results.

Large model: approximately 14–18% WER on clear Gujarati. Limited Whisper training data for this language.

Common use cases

Transcribe Gujarati business meetings, family recordings, Gujarati news, and cultural events.
