Tiune - For Windows & MacOS

Writes what you meant not what you said. Now on Windows.

What it does

Tiune turns speech into clean, finished text in any field, macOS and Windows. Engine built in: offline from first launch, no download, no account, your voice never leaves the machine. Text lands punctuated, capitalised and free of "um" and "you know", not a raw transcript. Our first Windows release, and the first to write what you meant: "six, no, maybe five, say five" becomes "let's meet at five". Paid handles: Multilingual mid-sentence. Local stays free: no subscription, no word limits.

Tiune is voice to text software for macOS and Windows that turns speech into clean, finished text in any app. Hold a key and talk — no typing required.

Tiune turns speech into clean, finished text in any app on your Mac or PC. Hold a key and talk. Words drift in as you speak and firm up as your voice steadies. When you let go, the text is already where your cursor was. Hold ⌥ in any app. The bar wakes and listens for exactly as long as you hold. Nothing records until you ask. Talk the way you think. Tiune cleans the stumbles, keeps the meaning, and fits the result to the text already around your cursor. Let go, and finished text lands where your cursor was. No window to switch to, no box to paste from. Mail, Slack, browsers, editors, terminal. If your cursor blinks there, Tiune types there. Reshape what you said once it has landed:…from tiune.app

    Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
