Audio Talk AI is a desktop voice input tool. Hold a global hotkey, speak, and the recognized text is copied to the clipboard or typed directly into the focused field. Coding, chatting, note-taking, long-form writing — just say it.
From hotkey trigger to auto-submit, the whole pipeline is tuned for "less typing, more talking".
toggle (press to start, press again to stop) and hold (press and speak) modes. Default F9; modifier combos like Alt+Super also work.
Doubao, OpenAI Realtime/Whisper, the full iFlytek lineup, and Xiaomi MiMo. Switch on the fly in the TUI — streaming or batch, your call.
Recognized text goes to the clipboard or straight into the focused field — and your prior clipboard is restored after pasting.
Always-on-top recording capsule for Wayland, X11, macOS, and Windows — live status and waveform, no workflow interruption.
A Bubble Tea config UI in the terminal, plus a browser console at http://localhost:8391 — config stays in sync in real time.
Configure hotwords for project names, people, English terms, and domain jargon to measurably lift recognition accuracy.
Tracks total sessions, total characters, average speed, and recent speed — quantify how fast you really talk.
On Linux / macOS, start a TUI session with --d, detach, and hotkeys keep working. Reattach anytime with --di.
