Could you build this?
Partial Building a custom on-device speech-to-text and text-polishing model that runs locally on macOS with real-time text injection requires deep local ML and macOS system accessibility integration.
What it would actually take: Requires a native macOS app (Swift) utilizing the Accessibility API (`AXUIElement`) to detect cursor focus and simulate keystrokes/clipboard injection across arbitrary applications. Speech processing requires running an on-device Whisper model via CoreML or whisper.cpp, paired with a quantized small language model (like LLaMA-3-8B via llama.cpp or MLX) fine-tuned specifically to strip filler words and perform formatting without latency spikes, demanding machine learning systems expertise.
