What it does
Whispeak is a desktop companion built around user ownership of conversation data, not a cloud-first recording app. Audio stays with the user, and we plan to add end-to-end encryption to strengthen that model further. Beyond transcription, we see Whispeak becoming a private conversation memory layer for AI-native workflows, including a user's own digital twin and local AI agents such as Claude Code, Codex, and OpenClaw working directly with data on the user's computer.
Whispeak helps teams and professionals capture conversations, turn them into searchable notes, and keep follow-ups organized across desktop and mobile.
Whispeak turns every conversation into searchable notes, decisions, and context you can return to whenever work moves forward. Maya: Let’s prioritise the customer onboarding flow this week. Alex: I’ll share the revised plan today and schedule a review. Record, review, and turn your conversations into a knowledge base your team can use. Record desktop calls, conversations on mobile, or upload the files you already have. Review speaker-aware transcripts, summaries, decisions, and action items without replaying the whole meeting. Connect notes to people, tags, and previous conversations so every follow-up starts informed. Whispeak records the conversation while you listen, ask better…from whispeak.online

Hello everyone. This is Yujong from the Hyprnote team (https://github.com/fastrepl/hyprnote). We built OWhisper for 2 reasons: (Also outlined in https://docs.hyprnote.com/owhisper/what-is-this) (1). While working with on-device, realtime speech-to-text, we found there isn't tooling that exists to download / run the model in a practical way. (2). Also, we got frequent requests to provide a way to plug in custom STT endpoints to the Hyprnote desktop app, just like doing it with OpenAI-compatible LLM endpoints. The (2) part is still kind of WIP, but…
OpenWhisper – free, local, and private voice-to-text macOS appFeb 2026 · github.com · ▲37I wanted a voice-to-text app but didn't trust any of the proprietary ones with my privacy. So I decided to see if I could vibe code it with 0 macOS app & Swift experience. It uses a local binary of whisper.cpp (a fast implementation of OpenAI's Whisper voice-to-text model in C++). Github: https://github.com/richardwu/openwhisper I also decided to take this as an opportunity to compare 3 agentic coding harnesses: Cursor w/ Opus 4.6: - Best one-shot UI by far - Didn't get permissioning correct - Had issues making the "Cancel recording" hotkey being turned on all the…

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
