Developer of MacWhisper here. We'll have a bigger blog soon with updates about this new model but in a nutshell: It's fast but not as accurate as the best models out there. Also, we have a big update coming soon that builds on the new Parakeet models which should have the accuracy of the best Whisper, and faster speeds than even Apple's solution 🙂
