Also - grounding:
"open safari" (safari opens, voice says: "I opened safari") "navigate to google.com in safari" (nothing happens, voice says: "I navigated to google.com")
Anyway, really fun.
How does the RAG fit in, a voice-to-RAG seems a bit random as a feature?
I don’t mean to come across as dismissive, I’m genuinely confused as to what you’re offering.
Either way, this is a tremendous achievement and it's extremely relevant in the OpenClaw world where I might not want to have sensitive information leave my computer.
Before I install, is there any telemetry enabled here or is this entirely local by default?
I think this has to be the future for AI tools to really be truly useful. The things that are truly powerful are not general purpose models that have to run in the cloud, but specialized models that can run locally and on constrained hardware, so they can be embedded.
I'd love to see this able to be added in-path as an audio passthrough device so you can add on-device native transcriptioning into any application that does audio, such as in video conferencing applications.
they are a company that registers domains similar to their main one, and then uses those domains to spam people they scrape off of github without affecting their main domain reputation.

this comment, at this time, has 23 upvotes yet is below 2 grey comments (i.e. <=0 upvotes) that were posted at roughly the same time (1 before, 1 after) -- strong evidence of artificial ordering by the moderators. gross.
Not sure why they decided to reinvent the wheel and write yet another ML engine (MetalRT) which is proprietary. I would most likely bet on CoreML since it have support for ANE (apple NPU) or MLX.
Other popular repos for such tasks I would recommend:
https://github.com/FluidInference/FluidAudio
https://github.com/DePasqualeOrg/mlx-swift-audio
I was curious so I did some more research within the company to find more shady stuff going on like intentionally buying new domains a month prior to send that spam to not have the mail reputation of their website down. You can read my comment here[2]
Just to be on the safe side here, @dang (yes pinging doesn't work but still), can you give us some average stats of who are the people who upvoted this and an internal investigation if botting was done. I can be wrong about it and I don't ever mean to harm any company but I can't in good faith understand this. Some stats
Some stats I would want are: Average Karma/Words written/Date of the accounts who upvoted this post. I'd also like to know what the conclusion of internal investigation (might be) if one takes place.
[There is a bit of conflicts of interest with this being a YC product but I think that I trust hackernews moderator and dang to do what's right yeah]
I am just skeptical, that's all, and this is my opinion. I just want to provide some historical context into this company and I hope that I am not extrapolating too much.
It's just really strange to me, that's all.
