Looks interesting. Why does it need a GUI at all?




As an alternative to Wisprflow, Superwhisper and so on. It works really well compared to the commercial competitors but with a local model.

I hear a CLI request? Tons of CLI speech-to-text tools by the way, really glad to see this. Excellent competitors (Superwhisper, MacWhisper, etc.) are closed/paid.

It doesn’t! Just makes it more accessible to more people I feel. There’s a cli version for Mac which I wrote first handy-cli

Ah, that was a typo: you meant "GPU" (Graphics Processing Unit, not "GUI" which of course is Graphical User Interface) since that is listed in the system requirements. Explained implicitly by an existing comment, thanks!

So more people can use it?

Because local AI models run well on a GPU, better than on a CPU
