Hi all! I love WisprFlow but the truth is, I did not want to pay for yet another subscription.
So, I built Local-Dictate. It's a free alternative to WisprFlow for Windows, but works completely locally on your device. Me and 5-6 of my friends have been personally using it for a couple months and the speed and quality is quite similar to WisprFlow. No internet needed. No API key needed. No GPU needed.
Also, I wanted it to be easy for non-techincal users (and they hate terminals!). So, there is no installation. You literally just need to download the files from the website, unzip and start using it!
Want to build this as an opensource project so happy for people to help me improve it!
