The Linux speech-to-text landscape has grown a lot — these days you'll find a microphone icon and voice input in pretty much every chat app and code editor. But just a year ago? Almost nothing had decent STT support on Linux.
That's when I built Speak to AI — and solved the problem at the system level, for any app and any window.
No Electron, no browser tabs, no cloud dependencies — just a lightweight Go binary with whisper.cpp doing all the heavy lifting locally. Works on any Linux distro and any DE.
