OpenLess Voice Input

Skill by ara.so — Daily 2026 Skills collection.

OpenLess is a cross-platform (macOS 12+, Windows 10+) voice-input app built with Tauri 2 + Rust + React/TypeScript. Press a global hotkey, speak, release — the app records audio, transcribes via Volcengine streaming ASR or Whisper, polishes the transcript with an LLM, and inserts the result at the active cursor in any app. It is a fully open-source alternative to Typeless, Wispr Flow, and Superwhisper.
