This paper presents an automated speech recognition (ASR) system that transcribes audio from YouTube videos into accurate text using OpenAI's Whisper model. Leveraging tools such as yt_dlp, FFmpeg, and PyTorch, the system creates a robust speech-to-text pipeline. On receiving a video URL, the system extracts and preprocesses audio, transcribes it using Whisper, and evaluates transcription quality through metrics like Word Error Rate (WER), Character Error Rate (CER), and Match Error Rate (MER). The pipeline supports offline use, making it suitable for accessible, cost-effective deployment in educational, research, and assistive applications.
