Press a shortcut, speak, and your words are instantly pasted at the cursor. Supports on-device transcription via Whisper and cloud transcription via Groq, plus an AI Mode that sends your voice to an LLM and pastes the response directly.\n\n## Features\n\n- **Dictation** — global shortcut triggers recording; transcription is pasted at the active cursor\n- **Push to Talk or Toggle** — hold to record and release, or press once to start and again to stop\n- **Local transcription** — on-device Whisper inference, no internet required\n- **Groq cloud transcription** — faster cloud-based transcription via the Groq API\n- **AI Mode** — separate shortcut sends your voice to an LLM and pastes a direct answer\n- **Snippets** — save reusable text snippets; AI Mode is aware of them\n- **Dictation history** — recent transcriptions with right-click copy\n- **Language selection** — auto-detect or set a specific language (ISO 639-1)\n- **Custom vocabulary** — bias the model toward specific words and names\n- **Microphone selection** — choose any input device or use the system default\n\n## Default shortcuts\n\n| Action | Default |\n|---|---|\n| Dictation | `Fn` |\n| AI Mode | `Right Option` |\n\nBoth shortcuts are fully customizable in Settings → Shortcut.\n\n## Quick start\n\nDownload the latest DMG from [Releases](https://github.com/mxvsh/wave/releases/latest).\n\nReleases are distributed as signed, notarized DMGs.\n\n## Build from source\n\n```bash\nmake build\n```\n\n```bash\nopen build/Build/Products/Release/Wave.app\n```\n\nOr launch from Xcode — open `Wave.xcodeproj`, select the `Wave` scheme, and run.\n\n## Signed releases\n\nGitHub Actions builds signed and notarized release DMGs for tags matching `v*.*.*`.\n\nRequired repository secrets:\n\n- `BUILD_CERTIFICATE_BASE64` — base64-encoded `Developer ID Application` `.p12`\n- `P12_PASSWORD` — password for the `.p12`\n- `KEYCHAIN_PASSWORD` — temporary CI keychain password\n- `APPLE_ID` — Apple ID email used for notarization\n- `APPLE_APP_SPECIFIC_PASSWORD` — app-specific password for notarization\n- `APPLE_TEAM_ID` — Apple Developer Team ID\n- `SPARKLE_PRIVATE_KEY` — Sparkle EdDSA private key for appcast generation\n\n## Roadmap\n\n- [x] Toggle and Push to Talk recording modes\n- [x] Local offline transcription with Whisper\n- [x] Groq cloud transcription\n- [x] AI Mode with LLM response via Groq\n- [x] Custom dictionary / vocabulary\n- [x] Language selection\n- [x] Dictation history with copy\n- [x] Snippets with AI awareness\n- [x] Microphone selection\n- [ ] App-specific behavior profiles\n- [ ] Quality presets for speed vs accuracy\n\n## Support\n\nJoin the [Discord](https://discord.gg/6YznRVc23J) community for feedback and help.\nFor bug reports and feature requests, open a GitHub issue.\n\n## Credits\n\n- [whisper.cpp](https://github.com/ggml-org/whisper.cpp) — local speech-to-text inference\n- [Sparkle](https://sparkle-project.org/) — macOS auto-update framework\n- [PhosphorSwift](https://github.com/phosphor-icons/swift) — icon library\n\n## Contributing\n\nContributions are welcome.
