Every time a STT/TTS model is posted I wonder if it will change my current workflow on MacOS, which is:

STT with Parakeet-V3 via Hex [1] app for near-instant good-enough transcription for talking to AI agents.

TTS using KyutAI’s Pocket-TTS, an amazing 100M-param model. I used this to make a "voice" plugin [2] for Claude Code

So far I haven’t seen anything that replaces these for me, or haven't been persuaded enough to spend time testing an alternative (explore/exploit and all that).

[1] Hex STT app - https://github.com/kitlangton/Hex, which is macOS-only. (also good free/OSS alternatives: Handy, VoiceInk. No need for Wispr, Superwhisper etc)

[2] Claude Code Voice Plugin - https://pchalasani.github.io/claude-code-tools/plugins-detai...

What do you consider to be the model with highest accuracy?
