Local speech for macOS
Audio in. Transcript out.
EdgeSpeak turns recordings into clean text on Apple Silicon, then exposes the same local speech engine through a small OpenAI-compatible gateway.
Private by default. Built for local files, MCP tools, and CLI workflows.

v0.1 scope
The first release is about reliable local transcription.
The web app handles billing, licenses, downloads, and docs. The desktop app keeps speech recognition on the Mac.
Gateway mode
Call local speech from tools that already know OpenAI-compatible APIs.
Device licenses
Manage up to four activated Macs from the account page.
Developer surface
Use the Mac as a speech backend.
EdgeSpeak ships with a local gateway for scripts, agents, and internal workflows that need private transcription without uploading source audio.
