Local Windows dictation app

Wispr Flow-style dictation for Windows that runs entirely on your PC

Problem
Wispr Flow and similar dictation tools are great on Mac, but Windows users either rely on cloud solutions with privacy and latency concerns or lack a polished local tool—while more people write and code on PC for hours.
Solution
A Windows desktop app with a global hotkey that records, transcribes locally with Whisper, and injects text into the active field. Custom vocabulary and punctuation commands included; data never leaves the machine.
Users
Writers, developers, and support staff on Windows who type a lot
MVP
Global hotkey recording; local Whisper transcription; text injection into active window; custom vocabulary; system tray resident
Revenue
One-time $29; Pro $59 with multilingual models and team dictionary sync
Why now
Local Whisper inference is fast enough on consumer PCs, and Windows lacks a polished local dictation tool; a solo dev can ship quickly by wrapping existing models
