Supported workflows and languages
WhisperARC supports translation for microphone dictation. It detects the source language during transcription and returns the result in your selected language. System-audio captures and imported files stay in their source language.
Local translation is included on every plan; it does not require a WhisperARC Pro license.

Enable translation
- For microphone dictation open Settings and choose a language in Translation. Choose None to disable it. You can also change this from the WhisperARC system-tray menu.
- Start recording as usual.
- Review the translated result in the target language. History and structured exports keep source-language metadata when available.
Performance and fallback
In Local Mode translation runs after transcription using the Qwen model selected under Model > Local > Assistant. Model size and hardware affect the delay. Cloud translates the transcript using the shared credits; OpenAI KEY uses your selected OpenAI Assistant model and separate OpenAI billing. A dictation mode takes priority over translation.
If the detected source already matches the target, WhisperARC keeps the transcription without an unnecessary translation pass. If translation cannot produce a reliable result, WhisperARC preserves the original transcription.
