Your context aware local writing assistant
- 1HD
Hi guys. I have been working on Hitoku Draft, an open-source, voice-first AI assistant that runs entirely locally. I posted about it already, and now it has also transcription with voice editing. Looking for feedback, as I found that outside tech circles other people still do not use this tech much. It's context-aware, in the sense that it reads your screen, documents, and active app to understand what you're working on. You can ask about PDFs, reply to emails, create calendar events, use web search, editing text, all by voice. You can download a compiled version for free with the code…

This lets you talk to local LLMs in Apple Notes. I saw Obsidian Ollama (https://github.com/hinterdupfinger/obsidian-ollama) and thought it was handy, but I'm too lazy to migrate away from the Apple ecosystem, so I quickly hacked this together. I tend to use Notes as a scratchpad for prompts, so it's nice to do some quick inference without leaving the app. Notes doesn't really support plugins so I'm using the macOS accessibility API for reading selections and then stream responses using the clipboard (not ideal but it works).

I'm not the author of the app (nor i have any connection with them, just a random user). iA Writer and Writer Pro aren't well suited for me as a developer. They feel quite "strange" to me. Mou is a good option (free too) but still missing some features. So far this, this editor is the most complete user-friendly. Hope it helps!
