Hi Sam — could you send over the grant draft when you have a moment? Thanks so much.
Rambling voice → a message you’d actually send.
Heads up — the Q-SYS core reboot is at 6. I’ll post the Dante patch list after.

One-time vs subscription
Wispr is cloud dictation on a subscription. Voiceinator runs a local model on your Mac — best privacy, and the cheapest lifetime value because you pay once.
Typical cloud dictation
Boring Labs
Pipeline
Global hotkey (Right-Option) or menu-bar toggle. Mic capture stays in the Swift shell — no browser, no extension.
Audio rides a local Unix socket to an MLX sidecar: Whisper for STT, then a local LLM for cleanup and formatting.
Clipboard paste first, Accessibility when native, keystrokes as fallback. Your vocabulary biases both models so terms stick.
Local-only
Speech-to-text and cleanup both run on-device. No upload. No “send to the cloud for better results.” Your drafts, lectures, and client names stay yours.
Who it’s for
Engineers shipping tickets. Teachers writing between classes. Students drafting essays. Writers chasing first drafts. Founders clearing inboxes. Your jargon sticks — course codes, client names, Q-SYS and Dante alike.
APIs, ticket updates, and standups without fighting autocorrect.
Lesson notes, parent emails, and rubrics between classes.
Lecture captures, essay drafts, and group-chat clarity.
First drafts at speaking speed — cleanup stays local.
Investor notes, hiring emails, and product copy on the fly.
