About Amical
Amical is an open-source, local-first AI dictation app that runs on your own machine. It is powered by Whisper for speech-to-text and open source language models for intelligent processing, giving you AI dictation with privacy.
Dictation is context-aware. Amical detects the active app, whether you are drafting an email, chatting on Discord or writing prompts in an IDE, and formats your speech accordingly. It suits people who want to type faster by voice without relying on the cloud.

- Context-aware speech-to-text based on the active app
