ScrAIbe-WebUI: No-Code Transcription for Research Teams

After releasing ScrAIbe, many colleagues still needed a friendly interface—they were researchers, not DevOps engineers. ScrAIbe-WebUI closes that gap with a Gradio-based, no-code frontend for the same backend pipeline. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}

Highlights:

  • Drag-and-drop uploads + recording from microphone or webcam, designed for long files and real lab workflows.
  • Two operating modes:
    • Synchronous (real-time) transcription for live use.
    • Asynchronous processing that can integrate with a mail client: users upload in the UI and get transcripts back automatically by email.
  • Broad media support through FFmpeg compatibility (audio and video in most common formats).
  • Advanced model controls in the UI: choose any Whisper model or the faster-whisper CPU backend, and toggle Pyannote diarisation when needed.
  • Easy lab deployment via Docker or Docker Compose, plus a config.yaml for clean customization of defaults and UI behavior.

Power users keep their Python/CLI automations in ScrAIbe, while everyone else gets reliable, reproducible transcription through a browser.
