Windows Beta

Install EdgeSpeak on Windows.

Download the EdgeSpeak desktop installer for Windows x64. A single installer carries the CPU, NVIDIA CUDA and Vulkan runtimes, and EdgeSpeak picks the fastest one your PC supports.

Requires 64-bit Windows 10 or Windows 11. The installer bundles the CPU, CUDA and Vulkan runtimes, so it is a large download.

This Beta is not code-signed yet and uses manual updates. Release validation covers physical Windows 11 x64 hardware and Windows Server 2022/2025 hosted CI; Windows 10 was not tested on physical hardware for this release. Verify the SHA-256 shown on this page before you run the installer.

Desktop installation

Install in three checks.

Use the public installer from this page, then confirm the file before allowing it to change your computer.

01

Download the installer

Download setup.exe from the release card above. Do not use a copy from another website or chat attachment.

02

Verify and run

Compare the file's SHA-256 with the value above. Because this Beta is unsigned, Windows may show Unknown publisher; continue only after the checksum matches.

03

Launch and activate

Open EdgeSpeak, sign in or start the device trial, then import a short audio file to confirm local transcription. Download a newer Beta manually when one is published.

CLI / MCP

Install the standalone runtime from PowerShell.

If you only need terminal or agent workflows, open PowerShell and run the command. It installs the compact CPU runtime by default and verifies SHA-256 before replacing an existing runtime.

Open a new PowerShell window after installation, then sign in once on this device. The default command never downloads CUDA automatically.

The standalone CLI/MCP runtime is separate from the desktop app and installs the compact CPU build by default. CUDA is a much larger optional download; choose it explicitly only on a supported NVIDIA PC:

powershell -NoProfile -Command '$env:EDGESPEAK_WINDOWS_ACCELERATOR="cuda"; irm https://edgespeak.com/install.ps1 | iex'
edgespeak-cli --version
edgespeak-cli login
edgespeak-cli transcribe media.mp4 -o media.srt
