Could you build this?
Partial A basic macOS wrapper is doable, but achieving native global macOS text injection alongside sub-300ms speech-to-text with rewrite capabilities requires native Swift/AppKit engineering and low-latency audio pipelines.
What it would actually take: Requires native Swift/AppKit development interfacing with macOS Accessibility APIs, CGEvent/Input Monitoring, and AVFoundation. The hard technical problem is achieving sub-300ms latency, necessitating local on-device Whisper (via CoreML/whisper.cpp) or low-latency bidirectional WebSocket streaming to a cloud transcription engine, followed by instantaneous system-wide text replacement.
