Show HN: ClearHearAI-The Essential App for Hearing Impaired and Deaf Communities
I built ClearHearAI to help hearing impaired and deaf people. It is a transcription app that provides context indicators (e.g. when questions are asked, urgent keywords are detected, conversation is happening). All audio processing happens entirely on your device - your voice never leaves your computer. Conversation transcripts are stored locally on the device.<p>Any feedback welcomed.
Show HN: AIDictation – zero data retention dictation app
Hi HN,I built AIDictation.com, a voice to text app written in Swift. It sends audio to my own backend, runs it through a Whisper-based pipeline, and returns a transcription you can then send straight into an AI chat like ChatGPT or Claude.I’ve been building full‑stack apps for ~20 years, but this is my first Swift application. I leaned heavily on AI coding tools to get from zero Swift to a working app and backend in a couple of weeks.What it doesRecords audio and sends it to my server.

Show HN: WizWhisp – Offline, Whisper Transcription GUI for Windows
Hey HN,I’ve been working on WizWhisp, a Windows desktop app for running OpenAI’s Whisper locally. I wanted something native, simple, and privacy-friendly. Existing tools are great but didn’t quite fit what I needed, so I built my own.What it does:Drag in audio/video and get transcripts (TXT, SRT, VTT).Runs Whisper 100% offline.Uses CUDA if you have an Nvidia GPU; otherwise falls back to CPU.Handles long recordings.Tech:
C# + WinUI3 for UI, whisper.cpp for inference.Business model:
