Dictation and autocomplete in one Mac app. Hold a key and speak, or start typing and Tab finishes your sentence. Both share one brain that learns how you write, so the more you use either, the more both sound like you. Nothing you say or type leaves your Mac.

Could you build this?

Partial The UI and shell are vibe-codeable, but a good system-wide, low-latency dictation and personalized autocomplete on-device requires real speech and language model engineering beyond prompting.

What it would actually take: A realistic build is a native macOS app (Swift) with global hotkeys, accessibility hooks for inserting text, and on-device models such as Whisper variants and a small local LLM. The hard parts are keeping autocomplete latency low enough to feel native, personalization that adapts to a user's writing without leaving the Mac, and model quantization and tuning, which call for ML and systems expertise.
