This page is now a legacy pointer. For first-time speech setup, use the hardware-first guide instead of this older add-on page.
Start here:
- First-Time Audio Setup: GPU/Accelerated Systems for NVIDIA GPUs and Apple Silicon
- First-Time Audio Setup: CPU Systems for CPU-only systems
Use the accelerated guide after your base profile is already healthy.
It contains the current prerequisites, provider recommendations, setup steps for make, manual/local Python, and Docker + WebUI, plus verification and troubleshooting.
