EKHOS AI
EKHOS AI is a Windows desktop app that transcribes audio and video entirely on your own machine. Local ASR models run on your CPU or an NVIDIA GPU (RTX recommended), with Intermediate, Advanced and Expert accuracy tiers plus an Optimized mode that roughly doubles speed. It handles most formats (MP3, MP4, WAV, MKV, AVI, MPEG), live microphone and system-speaker capture, bulk queue transcription, and speaker diarization with auto-labeling in 98 languages. After sign-in it works fully offline. Files and transcripts never leave the device, are encrypted in a local database, and are never used for model training. No telemetry, no usage analytics. Proofreading is the real workflow win: a built-in media player syncs with a Tracks Editor that highlights the active segment so you can fix text against playback, with in-transcript search and Word/PDF/Text export. Built for people who can't legally or ethically ship recordings to a cloud vendor: legal and medical transcribers, therapists, journa

Product information
Everything worth knowing about EKHOS AI
The complete picture — from everyday features to the technical detail builders and IT folks dig for.
Core features
What it actually does
Unlimited transcription (Premium)
No caps on file size, quantity, or recording duration on Premium — transcribe entire hearings, lectures, or podcast archives in one sitting. The Free plan is throttled to 30 minutes per day, which is the real story if you plan on doing actual work with it.
Speaker identification & labeling
Auto-tags each line as SPEAKER 1, SPEAKER 2, etc., and you can rename them to real names after the fact. Handy for interviews and depositions; expect to mop up a few mislabeled turns on crosstalk-heavy audio.
Synced proofreading editor
A built-in media player and Tracks Editor highlight transcript segments in sync with playback, so you can fix text while hearing the audio. Includes in-transcript search and a plain text editor fallback.
Export & share
Export to Word, PDF, and plain Text, or copy straight to the clipboard. Manage, rename, update, and delete transcripts from a single library view.
Technical capabilities
Fully offline local AI
All processing happens on your machine — no cloud, no telemetry, no usage analytics, no external transmission of audio or transcripts. Files and transcripts are encrypted in a local database and never used for model training. Sign-up collects only name and email.
Selectable model tiers and modes
Three local model tiers — Intermediate, Advanced, Expert — trading speed for accuracy (Expert is slower but more accurate). Transcription modes: Optimized (claimed 2× faster than Standard), Standard, and Speaker Identification.
CPU/GPU execution with batch queue
Runs on CPU out of the box; NVIDIA GPUs (RTX recommended) accelerate transcription noticeably. Built-in queue handles bulk file batches, and 98 languages are supported across most audio/video containers (MP3, MP4, WAV, MKV, AVI, MPEG).
