Description

FluidVoice is a free and open-source dictation application for macOS that combines local speech recognition with an on-device AI model known as Fluid-1, which enhances the quality of dictation. By using a single hotkey, users can dictate text into virtually any input field across various applications such as email, documents, chat interfaces, terminals, code editors, and more, with the text being displayed almost instantaneously. The application relies on local speech models that function offline, allowing for secure dictation without needing an internet connection, while optional AI post-processing can utilize Fluid Intelligence, OpenAI, Groq, or other custom providers. Fluid-1 improves initial dictation by refining rough entries, correcting formatting, capitalization, dates, names, and numbers, and it adjusts the tone according to the currently active application, all while preserving the speaker's intended meaning. Users have the flexibility to develop personalized prompts tailored to different applications, and with modes like Write Mode, Command Mode, and Direct Dictation, transitioning between tasks is seamless. Furthermore, FluidVoice is capable of supporting over 40 languages, leveraging various models such as Nemotron Speech 3.5, Parakeet Flash, Parakeet TDT versions 2 and 3, Cohere Transcribe, Apple Speech, and Whisper, thus catering to a diverse user base and enhancing accessibility in dictation across different linguistic backgrounds. This versatility makes FluidVoice an essential tool for those seeking effective and efficient dictation solutions.

Description

Whisperstream is a dictation application designed for both Windows PCs and Apple silicon Macs (currently in beta) that transforms spoken language into written text within the active field of various applications through a simple push-to-talk shortcut. Once the necessary speech-recognition models are installed, users can dictate without an internet connection. The app features several available models, including NVIDIA Parakeet, Qwen3 ASR, and Cohere Transcribe. Users also have the option to utilize the on-device Stream-1 Mini model or a provider of their choice for additional cleanup. Among its many features, Whisperstream offers custom vocabulary settings, text replacement options, app-specific enhancement profiles, an easily searchable transcript history, the ability to transcribe audio files, and voice playback capabilities alongside interactive replies for sessions using Claude Code and Codex. It allows dictation in compatible text fields seamlessly without the need for additional add-ins and is particularly useful for individuals who prefer to dictate in coding editors, emails, documents, and other software applications. However, it is important to note that downloading models, performing software updates, and accessing certain optional online features may necessitate an internet connection for optimal functionality.
