Voibe is an offline voice dictation app for macOS that lets you write at the speed of thought. It works everywhere (Mail, Notes, Browsers, Slack, VS Code, ChatGPT, etc.), making it easy to draft messages, capture ideas, and produce long content without breaking concentration.
Unlike cloud dictation tools, Voibe runs fully on device using a local Whisper model. Your audio does not get uploaded, so private work stays local and dictation keeps working offline without any internet dependency. The experience is built for low latency, so words appear quickly while you talk and you spend less time waiting and correcting.

The Zettelkasten method is a knowledge management system that helps organise ideas effectively. I believe this system would work well for myself, so I have been looking at applications such a Logseq and Zettlr as a result. I am currently using a Wiki-style solution in Zim, however. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago
I am a fan of Logseq [0] as well, although it’s slightly different in that it is mostly for bulleted notes and not long-form prose. [0]: https://logseq.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
