Articulate 0.1.1

Articulate 0.1.1 is a Windows testing release with included local classifiers, Discord connection fixes, and more reliable live dictation.

Download

• Articulate-0.1.1-windows-x86_64-setup.exe: recommended per-user installer.
• Articulate-0.1.1-windows-x86_64.zip: portable version. Extract the whole folder before opening Articulate.exe.
• SHA256SUMS.txt: checksums for both downloads.

Existing users can check for this release in Settings > App updates. Finish recording before installing. Saved sessions, settings and downloaded models are kept.

Changes

• Pretrained Assort models for meeting highlights and contextual vocabulary review are included. No model paths or separate classifier installation are needed. Suggestions remain reviewable and do not automatically rewrite your text.
• Fixed a Windows connection-handling issue that could repeatedly disconnect the Vencord companion.
• Discord connects automatically after configuration. An optional setting starts a transcript on a confirmed call join and finishes it on leave.
• The custom Vencord build includes the native separate-participant audio adapter by default. Supported Discord voice-module versions are checked before use.
• Improved live insertion and revision in Discord's plain-text message field, including empty-editor recovery and accented characters.
• Refined transcript, notes, history and settings layouts.

First run

Download the speech model from Settings > Audio & models. Qwen3-ASR 1.7B Q8 is about 2.19 GB. The optional acoustic speaker model is about 237 MB. These large models are not bundled; the small Assort classifiers are.

Windows 10/11 x64 and 16 GB RAM are recommended. CPU-only operation is supported, with optional Vulkan acceleration. Press Ctrl+Alt+Space to start and finish dictation; the shortcut is customizable.

Testing limits

• Separate Discord audio has passed synthetic ABI and transport tests; real desktop-call validation is still pending. Mixed output cannot reliably separate overlapping voices. The app identifies the capture source in use.
• Discord emoji and other embedded editor objects can still pause live insertion. The transcript remains available in Articulate.
• Assort uses synthetic English training examples and can misclassify passages. Review suggestions. Notes contain quoted highlights, not generated narrative summaries.
• Recognition accuracy and speed depend on speech and hardware. Broader long-session and hardware testing is ongoing.
• The Windows binaries are unsigned. macOS, mobile keyboards and automatic device sync are not included.

Audio and text are processed locally. Large model downloads, explicit update checks and Discord avatar retrieval require network access. Audio is not archived. Please use synthetic or non-sensitive examples in public feedback.
