Could you build this?
Partial The desktop UI and API calls to LLMs are simple, but cross-platform global hotkey management, OS-level text injection, and local Whisper inference integration require non-trivial desktop systems plumbing.
What it would actually take: Built using Tauri/Rust or Electron with native bindings, embedding local whisper.cpp or ONNX Runtime for local speech-to-text, alongside OS accessibility APIs (Windows UI Automation, macOS Accessibility API, Linux AT-SPI) for synthetic keyboard input injection across active applications. The hard part is robust, cross-platform accessibility-based text replacement without trigger lag or permissions failures.
