Local voice dictation for mac, windows and linux
Hex is a local-first voice dictation app: hold a keyboard shortcut, speak, and the transcription is pasted into whatever app you're using. It's written in Rust, runs speech recognition entirely on-device with a downloadable local model, and works on Apple silicon Macs with Windows and Linux betas. It supports custom shortcuts, languages, models, and application-specific modes.
Why now: The project is gaining traction (~2.5k stars) around its local-first privacy pitch and its expansion from macOS to new Windows and Linux betas, plus a dev release channel and TypeScript SDK.
Who it is for: Mac (and beta Windows/Linux) users who want fast, private voice-to-text without sending audio to cloud services.
