HoldSpeak

Local-first voice dictation and meeting transcription app that types anywhere and extracts meeting decisions.

Desktopfreeglobal

HoldSpeak is a free, open-source, local-first voice application for macOS and Linux with a dictation mode that types speech directly into any app, and a meeting mode that extracts decisions, action items, and risk registers from recorded or imported meetings using an LLM the user configures. It shows exactly what data leaves the machine and to where. It's aimed at professionals who want voice dictation and meetings that produce actionable, searchable records instead of just a recording.
