Please share the other places this has been "solved".

I'm a daily user of Wispr Flow, in part because all previous attempts to try and reimplement it myself have been terrible. Tortoise and all of the other suggestions people offer up have terrible performance in comparison.

* AIT-AiTranscribe-MacOS: Parakeet + Whisper based. Parakeet isn't anywhere near as accurate as Wispr Flow (or as fast), Whisper is way too slow.

* Soink: Not OSS

* Hitoku: Not OSS

* Fluid: Parakeet + Whisper again. Also Apple Speech which is even worse than all of the other options

I'm not going to dissect every example of why this absolutely is not an already solved problem.
