Documentation

README

Excerpt

voxtype Install Guide

voxtype is a standalone PyPI package for fully on-device voice dictation on macOS. It types transcribed speech into whatever app has focus. No cloud, no accounts, no audio leaving the machine.

Install

One command; it picks the best engine for the machine automatically (Apple-GPU parakeet-mlx on Apple Silicon, CPU parakeet elsewhere):

uv tool install voxtype

If the user doesn't have uv, either install it first (curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh) or use pipx install voxtype.

Note: voxtype only works on macOS (it types via macOS accessibility APIs). Tell the user this up front if they are on Linux/Windows.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
