Show HN: Airboard – $1 voice dictation for Mac local

[mehrad_1]

I use voice dictation daily, but Wispr Flow at $144/year felt like too much for what it does.

So I built a minimal version: Hold Option → Speak → Release → Text appears at cursor.

- Works in any app - 100% local (WhisperKit), works offline - No account, no cloud

It's not as polished as Wispr or MacWhisper. But it's $1 and gets the job done.

If you run into any bugs, email me at [e-mail] — I'll fix it. Helps me learn too.

Built with SwiftUI + WhisperKit. Happy to answer questions.
