Could you build this?

Partial The core AI chat and dictation features are vibe-codeable, but system-wide application automation across Mac and Windows requires deep native OS accessibility and event-hooking engineering.

What it would actually take: The application requires native desktop clients (Swift/Objective-C for macOS and C#/C++ for Windows) that interface directly with OS-level APIs (macOS Accessibility API, Windows UI Automation) to inspect active application state and simulate inputs. Developing low-latency local or streaming audio capture pipelines, OS security permission management, and cross-platform accessibility tree traversal requires specialized native systems programming.
