Echo

What it does

Echo is a private, offline, and fast speech-to-text application. Transcribe your voice locally without sending data to the cloud.

Echo is a free, open-source speech-to-text app powered by Whisper AI. Transcribe voice locally on macOS, Windows, and Linux — 100% private, no internet required.

Press a shortcut. Speak naturally. Text appears where your cursor is — transcribed by on‑device AI that never phones home. Echo works system-wide. Trigger it from any app, and your words appear right where your cursor is. Zero bytes sent to any server. Zero accounts required. Zero telemetry. Everything happens on your hardware, in your RAM, under your control. Configure shortcuts, pick your model, and review every transcription. Built with Rust and Tauri for a fast, minimal footprint. We agreed to push the launch to March fifteenth to give the design team two extra weeks for the accessibility audit. The backend migration finished ahead of schedule. We can start QA testing by Thursday. Check…from echo-app.site

  isometric.nyc – giant isometric pixel art map of NYC▲1,325

  Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
