Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Mohamed, a medical intern from Egypt and I built Warid out of frustration.
Like many people in the Arab world, I constantly switch between Arabic and English mid-sentence. Standard speech-to-text tools like Whisper-based apps would either mishear the Arabic, butcher the code-switching, or just dump raw transcription with no structure.
What I actually needed wasn't just a transcription. I needed something that understands what I said and gives me text in the format I want. Sometimes that's a formal English paragraph. Sometimes it's a structured bullet list. Sometimes I want my Arabic speech translated into clean English, not just transcribed.
That's why I built Warid. Instead of a traditional STT pipeline, it sends audio directly to Gemini, which natively understands code-switching, dialects, and multilingual speech, and lets you define the output through custom prompt templates. You control the language, tone, and format entirely.
It's free, open-source, runs on Windows/macOS/Linux, and your audio never touches any server except Google's. Would love your feedback! 🙏
