About Phantom Voice

Push-to-talk dictation that inserts in place: hold fn, speak, release, and the text appears in the app your cursor is already in. Transcription runs locally with whisper.cpp + Metal, so your audio never leaves the Mac. An optional on-device cleanup pass strips filler words and fixes punctuation. Most dictation apps show you a recording dot or a generic soundwave. This one has hand-animated indicators. $10 once, no subscription. MIT source. macOS 14+, Apple silicon.

About Quicky

Quicky drops a fast, keyboard-first panel from your Mac & PC's menu bar so files, folders, apps, and links are one click away. Organize shortcuts into color-coded Sets per project, and find anything by typing a few letters. No data collected, no network calls: private, native SwiftUI, macOS 14+.
