blakkd/faster-whisper-hotkey
Effortless Push-to-Talk Transcription, Anywhere.
This tool helps you quickly convert spoken words into text, making it appear instantly wherever your cursor is. You hold a hotkey, speak, and your words appear in any text field, from documents to chat applications. It's designed for anyone who needs to input text by speaking, rather than typing, across various applications.
No commits in the last 6 months.
Use this if you frequently need to transcribe short bursts of speech directly into any application's text field, whether for note-taking, drafting emails, or quick communications.
Not ideal if you need to transcribe very long audio recordings as a single chunk, especially with automatic language detection, or if you primarily use Windows or the VSCodium/VSCode terminal.
