About
Handy is a free, open source, cross-platform speech-to-text app that runs completely offline and puts whatever you say directly into any text field. Press and hold a configurable keyboard shortcut, speak, and release; Handy records your voice, transcribes it locally, and pastes the result into the app you are using. Push-to-talk is enabled by default, but users can switch to a toggle mode that starts and stops recording with separate key presses. Handy supports macOS, Windows, and Linux and keeps voice data on the computer instead of sending audio to cloud services. Users can choose between Whisper models and Parakeet V3, Whisper provides broad multilingual support across more than 99 languages, while Parakeet V3 is optimized for fast CPU performance and automatic language detection. Silence is filtered with voice activity detection, and GPU acceleration is available for Whisper where supported.

About
VoiceInk is a native macOS dictation app that uses local AI models to instantly turn speech into clean text with near-perfect accuracy and complete privacy. It works across apps, letting users dictate emails, messages, notes, prompts, documents, and code without changing their workflow. Local models keep audio and processing on the Mac, while cloud providers are optional and only used when connected and selected by the user. Global shortcuts support toggle recording, push-to-talk, retry, cancel, and paste actions without reaching for the app. A personal dictionary teaches VoiceInk names, technical terms, unusual spellings, phrases, and Smart Replace shortcuts for frequently used text. Contextual awareness can use selected text, clipboard content, or visible screen text to improve transcription and AI-enhanced output. Modes let users save different transcription models, enhancement prompts, context settings, output behavior, and shortcuts for specific apps, websites, or tasks.
