Show HN: Whispering – An open-source alternative to Superwhisper

Hey HN,

I couldn’t find an open-source alternative to Superwhisper, Wispr Flow, etc. that I liked, so I built my own.

It’s free, cross-platform, runs locally or in the cloud with your own API key, and works via system-wide hotkey or voice-activated detection.

Under the hood, it’s built with Svelte 5 + Rust/Tauri, which makes it extremely lightweight (~22 MB on macOS) and performant.

GitHub → https://github.com/you/whispering

Releases → https://github.com/you/whispering/releases

Live demo/web → https://whispering.bradenwong.com

I’ve been using it daily for months and just shipped v7—would love your feedback!
