FloWords - AI voice-to-text for Mac. Local-first. No subscription.

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Luis Angel. Here's the real story behind FloWords. I dictate a lot. Client notes, project plans, chat AI models, speaking is just faster than typing for me. But every dictation tool I tried wanted a monthly subscription. $15/month here, $20/month there. For something that runs AI models that are freely available. That didn't sit right with me. Whisper is open-source. Apple Silicon is powerful enough to run it locally. Why am I paying monthly for something my own hardware can do? So I built FloWords. Local AI transcription by default, Whisper.cpp and Parakeet running directly on your Mac. Fast, accurate, no internet needed. But I also made it flexible. If you want to connect a cloud model for specific use cases, you can bring your own API key. Your choice, not mine. The pricing reflects the same philosophy: if the AI runs on your hardware, I have no ongoing costs. So it's a one-time purchase. That's it. Use it forever.
