6.1 Demo Mode & Sample Files

The application ships with a professional demo mode for instant showcases without waiting for full model runs:

  • Demo files are automatically downloaded at startup (if missing) into demo_audio/ and preprocessed into demo_results/ for blazing-fast responses.
  • Available demos:
  • Static serving: demo audio is exposed at /demo_audio/<filename> for local preview.
  • The UI provides two selectable cards under Demo Mode; once selected, the system loads a preview and renders a waveform using HTML5 Canvas (Web Audio API) before processing.

These cached demo results ensure instant transcript, translation, and analytics display when you click "Process Audio" in Demo Mode.

7. Core Components
