Additional information
- License: MIT
- Platforms: macOS, Windows, iOS/iPadOS, and Android
- Self-hosting: Not claimed. This repository provides native client applications, not a documented self-hosted service.
- Offline caveat: Offline recognition and a fully offline workflow are different. Optional cloud cleanup may send transcript text when enabled, and feature availability varies by platform.
- Suggested existing capabilities for maintainer review:
speech-to-text; global-hotkey and auto-pasting for desktop; offline-first only with the caveat above; and ai-text-transformation for optional cleanup.
