Big fan of Handy. It's simple, offers all the models with a great picker and the author is involved in building a general STT model runtime. It does streaming flawlessly with Nemotron, which mind-bogglingly many apps don't offer.

I checked out the alternatives mentioned in this thread and they appear more over-loaded, "sloppy" and commercial. Handy just does the thing without extras.

I recently switched to Voiceink which also does similar. I'm trying to find the edge this has over that but can't find it

VoiceInk took a little time compiling but it's been working flawlessly for the three people that use it now for dictating consultation notes.

Can you link to the exact website? Multiple similarly named projects show up.

I recently switched from Handy to Fluidvoice, and like it much better. The UI is much better and offers a better and more comprehensive feature set in comparison.

i do liked fluidvoice, can't compete with them honestly but do give it a try

They both use parakeet so I guess they would perform similar.

ye parakeet redux has been my new fav, that and tdt v2 both working well for my own clone app that was made.

How good is parakeet (assuming it’s Sota oss) compared to wisprflow? Wisprflow is magical ime
