My Own Dictation Tool With Automatic Translation
Lately I’ve been actively switching to voice input instead of typing. I used the native dictation on the Mac - the results were good, and overall I was happy with it. The other day I tried WhisperFlow, and you can tell the post-processing does its job: the result is better than with native dictation.
But what I personally miss in all such apps is being able to dictate in Russian and automatically get the text in English, since I work with developers from different countries and sometimes my brain refuses to produce complex constructions.
So Claude built me my own dictation tool - super minimalistic, with automatic translation. No local models yet, but it can work with any OpenAI-compatible provider. It’s raw, but already usable: mac works, linux & windows should work, but I haven’t tested them.
