Project Summary

Whispering offers global, highly accurate speech-to-text dictation powered by OpenAI's Whisper API, targeting users who need seamless voice input across any application or website. It provides a cross-platform desktop app and browser extension, with features like automatic clipboard integration and chat application support, aiming to significantly improve productivity for writers, developers, and general users.

How It Works

Whispering leverages OpenAI's Whisper API for its core transcription engine, ensuring high accuracy. The application architecture is a monorepo managed by Turborepo, sharing code between a SvelteKit-based desktop app (built with Tauri and Rust for native features like auto-pasting) and a Plasmo-based Chrome extension. Effect-TS is used for functional programming and type safety, with ShadCN-Svelte and TailwindCSS for UI components.
