Comment on Handy – Free open source speech-to-text appparent

Comments

I totally agree with you and largely what you’re describing is one of the reasons I made Handy open source. I really want to see something like this and see someone go experiment with making it happen. I did hear some people playing with using some small local models (moondream, qwen) to get some more context of the computer itself

I initially had a ton of keyboard shortcuts in handy for myself when I had a broken finger and was in a cast. It let me play with the simplest form of this contextual thing, as shortcuts could effectively be mapped to certain apps with very clear uses cases
