Linux-native speech-to-text in Rust. Sub-50 ms, whatever the length.

TypeMic product preview

Built for Linux developers dictating commits, documentation, and prose without leaving the keyboard, and for anyone on Linux who gave up on dictation because nothing worked properly.

TypeMic is live and available on monthly and yearly plans. Development is ongoing, and roadmap priorities are shaped by what users actually hit in daily use.

What I would value from this community: which desktop environments, distributions, and input targets to prioritise next, and if you abandoned Linux dictation before, exactly where it failed you.

    Hello everyone. I built StartupAccelerator, so it was overdue to submit one of my own projects for the same review. TypeMic is speech-to-text for Linux. Rust, sub-50 ms, no dependency stack. It is live and taking subscriptions, so be as direct as you like. Should I prioritise X11 or Wayland next? And if you gave up on Linux dictation before, what made you quit? Unrelated to this: if anyone wants eyes on architecture or security before you ship, my inbox is open. No charge. Best,
