How can I do audio transcription with AI on Windows 11?
What I like about SenseVoice is that it goes beyond simply turning speech into text. It can recognize spoken content while also detecting language, emotion, and audio events, which gives a free AI audio transcription tool more useful information from the same recording.
The project is available here: https://github.com/FunAudioLLM/SenseVoice
That combination works well for recordings where I want both the transcript and some context about what is happening in the audio, rather than just a block of converted text.

I’ve had a good experience with SenseVoice, but the setup took more effort than I expected. For a free AI audio transcription tool, it gives me useful transcription results, although getting the local environment and required dependencies ready was the part that took me the most time.
I also noticed that results can vary when recordings contain background noise, overlapping voices, or unclear speech, so I sometimes need to review the transcript and correct a few sections manually.
