Could you build this?
Partial Local whisper/TTS inference is accessible, but building a fast, low-latency native Windows desktop app with global OS hooks, native audio drivers, and hotkey injections across all Windows targets requires specialized desktop system programming.
What it would actually take: Building this requires C++/C# or Rust using Windows API hooks (SetWindowsHookEx, SendInput, UI Automation) alongside embedded ONNX/Whisper.cpp runtimes optimized for local hardware acceleration (DirectML/CUDA). Achieving near-instantaneous offline dictation without input lag across varied legacy and modern Windows software requires deep Windows system-level expertise.
