Hey PH! 👋 I'm Nanda, the developer of LotusQ.
I started building this because I switched from Mac to a Windows + Linux workflow and realized there was no good voice dictation option. WisprFlow the app I'd been using simply doesn't exist on those platforms. So I built my own.
The part I'm most proud of isn't the cloud features it's the local mode. Your audio runs through Whisper on your own machine, never touches a server, and works without internet. That's the free tier, and it's unlimited forever.
The Pro tier adds cloud AI that formats your speech based on which app you're in. Dictating an email gets you paragraph breaks and a salutation. Dictating in Slack gets you casual, punchy text. It sounds simple but it makes a real difference.
Mac is coming as soon as Apple approves my developer account. Windows and Linux are live today.
Happy to answer any questions about how it works technically — the paste-injection into different apps (especially Electron apps like Discord) was the hardest engineering problem by far.

@nanda_devaiah Congrats on the launch! As a music teacher, LotusQ has already made a huge difference for me, what used to take ~4 minutes per song now takes just a minute, saving me over 70% of my time.
Super impressed with the accuracy across English, Kannada, and Hindi, this is a game changer for teaching.
Excited to keep using it as part of my daily workflow!
@an_acra Thank you An. These kind of message helps us do better. Great use-case by the way. Would love to catch up and understand how you use LotusQ specifically for teaching
