# Whisper (CLI)
Use `whisper` to transcribe audio locally.
Quick start
– `whisper /path/audio.mp3 –model medium –output_format txt –output_dir .`
– `whisper /path/audio.m4a –task translate –output_format srt`
Notes
– Models download to `~/.cache/whisper` on first run.
– `–model` defaults to `turbo` on this install.
– Use smaller models for speed, larger for accuracy.
