Description: # Cheetah Speech-to-Text Engine
        
        Made in Vancouver, Canada by [Picovoice](https://picovoice.ai)
        
        Cheetah is an on-device streaming speech-to-text engine. Cheetah is:
        
        - Private; All voice processing runs locally.
        - [Accurate](https://picovoice.ai/docs/benchmark/stt/)
        - [Compact and Computationally-Efficient](https://github.com/Picovoice/speech-to-text-benchmark#rtf)
        - Cross-Platform:
            - Linux (x86_64), macOS (x86_64, arm64), and Windows (x86_64)
            - Android and iOS
            - Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge
            - Raspberry Pi (4, 3) and NVIDIA Jetson Nano
        
        ## Compatibility
        
        - Python 3
        - Runs on Linux (x86_64), macOS (x86_64, arm64), Windows (x86_64), Raspberry Pi (4, 3), and NVIDIA Jetson Nano.
        
        ## Installation
        
        ```console
        pip3 install pvcheetah
        ```
        
        ## AccessKey
        
        Cheetah requires a valid Picovoice `AccessKey` at initialization. `AccessKey` acts as your credentials when using Cheetah SDKs.
        You can get your `AccessKey` for free. Make sure to keep your `AccessKey` secret.
        Signup or Login to [Picovoice Console](https://console.picovoice.ai/) to get your `AccessKey`.
        
        ### Usage
        
        Create an instance of the engine and transcribe audio:
        
        ```python
        import pvcheetah
        
        handle = pvcheetah.create(access_key='${ACCESS_KEY}')
        
        def get_next_audio_frame():
            pass
        
        while True:
            partial_transcript, is_endpoint = handle.process(get_next_audio_frame())
            if is_endpoint:
                final_transcript = handle.flush()
        ```
        
        Replace `${ACCESS_KEY}` with yours obtained from [Picovoice Console](https://console.picovoice.ai/). When done be sure
        to explicitly release the resources using `handle.delete()`.
        
        ## Demos
        
        [pvcheetahdemo](https://pypi.org/project/pvcheetahdemo/) provides command-line utilities for processing audio using
        Cheetah.
