Community Voice & Feedback
A clipboard manager that keeps history is a secrets store whether you designed it as one or not. Everyone pastes an API key or a password out of a manager at some point, and now it's sitting in the notch ready to be reused. Do you detect and skip those, or is there at least a retention window I can set? The voice half is the interesting bit, most annotation tools make you type the thing you'd have said out loud in two seconds.
How does this compete with Whisperflow?
Congratulations on the launch! As someone who has carpal tunnel syndrome, this is really helpful.
Hey beautiful folks, Abhishek here.
2 Weeks ago, I build Assist out of frustration.
I was using native mac screenshot app for cropping and sending the image to codex. Along with long prompt I have to type (now speak).
This process is not bad but if you do this 100 times a day, annotating, cropping then it become frustrating.
Now, using Assist I hold option key and start annotating while speaking. The local model transcribe my voice, and create a optimise prompt which I can copy and send to codex, claude code or anywhere.
Assist is native macos notch so, when I take screenshot a quick screenshot editor appear right then and there with option like crop, blur and style.
All the data is stored locally and nothing is send to any server(there is no server). There is not subscription(one time only). Hope you like it.
