Profile

Hey Folks!Handy is a free and open source speech to text application that runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux.I built it because I broke my finger and was put in a cast, which made doing my day job really difficult trying to type with just one hand. I tried applications like MacWhisper and SuperWhisper, but I really needed something more extensible so I could play with accessibility features for my particular situation. I also love open source software and wanted to contribute something that other people can build on top of.The app is pretty simple – you hold down a keyboard shortcut while speaking (or press once to start/stop recording), and it transcribes what you said and pastes it directly
