First release of EchoNote: press a shortcut, speak, and get an organized task, reminder, idea or reference note. Speech recognition (whisper.cpp) and the language model (llama.cpp + Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct) run locally.

Install (Linux x86-64, tested on Fedora 44 / GNOME 50)

chmod +x EchoNote-1.0.0-x86_64.AppImage
./EchoNote-1.0.0-x86_64.AppImage

The first launch downloads and SHA-256-verifies the models (1.1 GB) from Hugging Face. After that EchoNote works offline.

Requirements: x86-64 CPU with AVX2, ~2.5 GB free RAM, ~1.2 GB disk for models. On GNOME/Wayland, use Settings → "Set up GNOME shortcut" for the global shortcut.

Known limitations: see the README (CPU-only; organizing takes ~5 s per note on the test laptop; reminders fire only while the app is running; English is the only tested language).
