I built Rekody, a voice dictation tool for macOS. There's many like it but this one is mine. Transcription runs on-device by default and it's free open source.

There's a CLI version and a Mac app. Windows next. If you end up suing it, I would genuinely love your feedback.

Thanks for this. I need an alternative to Wispr flow. Going to try this out. Any plans for a windows version?

Thanks. Honestly you are the exact person I built this for, I switched off Wispr Flow for the same reasons as well.

On Windows: I am working on it, the CLI first and the app after. I do not have a date I would trust yet so I will not promise one, but if you dm me on LinkedIn or X (username: tonykipkemboi) I will send you the link the day it is ready. You would be one of the first.

And if you do have a Mac to try the current version, I would genuinely love to hear where the latency or accuracy breaks for you. It is a solo project, so any kind of feedback is the most useful thing I can get.

ya I have couple macs. I will try it! I just asked about Windows since I do most of my work on Windows.

That's awesome. And thank you. I will go ahead and update you once I have the Windows versions ready for testing so you can try it out. Thanks, again.
