I built this because I wanted to see how far I could get with a voice-to-text app that used 100% local models so no data left my computer. I've been using a ton for coding and emails. Experimenting with using it as a voice interface for my other agents too. 100% open-source MIT license, would love feedback, PRs, and ideas on where to take it.

Codictate▲72I've built an AI dictation tool (like many others), but this time I have taken the time to benchmark all of the 34 models that we provide, so users can actually make a qualified choice on what model should be the daily driver. The best is that it's open source, so if you think we can improve something, please come and help out.

MacYaps▲88Hello HN! After having fun with SlapMac a few weeks ago, I wanted to take the idea further — so I built MacYaps, a menu bar app that makes your Mac talk back with funny sounds (or serious if you wish) for real events like low battery, WiFi drops, charger status changes, high CPU, and USB connections (more triggers to come). Multiple voice packs + full custom sound support included. Short demo found here: https://macyaps.com/demo. Would genuinely appreciate any feedback. Or let me know if you'd like any other triggers in the app. Discount Code: `HACKERNEWS` to get it for $4.49…

Sayline▲83I built a voice dictation app for macOS mostly because I was tired of how awful Siri is and I didn't want to pay a subscription for cloud tools. The app uses NVIDIA's Parakeet v3 (TDT) as the primary engine. Inference is handled by the FluidAudio library. It's insanely fast on M-series chips. For Intel users, I added local Whisper support ranging from Tiny up to Large v3 Turbo (quantized to save space). The interesting part was the AI integration. I originally tried to pipeline the ASR output into Apple's Intelligence Foundation Model. It was a nightmare, because the content moderation…
