Settings: Local AI & Offline Models
Run transcription and caption generation entirely on your Mac with WhisperKit and MLX.
Run everything on-device: no internet, no per-minute costs, your files never leave your Mac.
WhisperKit
Download transcription models in Settings โ Transcription. Larger models are more accurate; turbo is faster.
MLX
MLX is in-process local LLM caption generation (Qwen, Gemma, Llama, Ministral). No separate install needed.
RAM
MagiaCap recommends models based on your Mac's memory. 16GB comfortably runs large models.
Local models are private by default. Pair WhisperKit with an MLX model and you never touch the network.
