title doesn't let nuance, ofc it's not the app that's faster but the way you can use it with Groq inference for example.

what is the value prop of mumbli vs the myriad of OSS STT tools that already exist like handy [1], hex [2], ghostpepper [3], OpenWhispr [4], any of the ones listed here [5] or here [6]?

[2] - https://github.com/kitlangton/Hex

[3] - https://github.com/matthartman/ghost-pepper

PS. have you seen this? https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLM/comments/1r7bohc/macos_bui... your landing page reminded me of it.

I'm not sure if there is a strong value proposition here. It is more of an exercise. Few hours of joy doing smth :)

I’m not a designer either. I basically took Claude Design, and practiced a little bit.

For me, as an engineer who doesn’t really do design at all, it feels pretty reasonable. Recently I would usually just take Tailwind and some decent default component set, like shadcn, and build from there. Now I can do a reasonable version myself with Claude, which is cool.
