v0.2.0
4a1f908

First public release of Larkyn — a privacy-first, system-wide voice-to-writing assistant for Windows 11.

Hold a hotkey, speak naturally, release: your speech becomes polished written text, pasted straight into whatever app you're using. 100% local — no cloud, no telemetry.

Install

  1. Install Ollama (v0.30.7+) and pull the model: ollama pull gemma4:e2b-it-qat
  2. Run LarkynSetup.exe (no admin required)
  3. First dictation downloads the Whisper speech model (~1.6 GB, one time)

Highlights

  • Push-to-talk global hotkey (hold to record, release to send) or toggle mode — any combo, including modifier-only like Ctrl+Win
  • Local GPU Whisper transcription (CUDA, with CPU fallback) + local LLM rewriting via Ollama
  • Windows 11 Fluent UI: dashboard, searchable history, writing profiles, personal vocabulary, live-apply settings
  • 7 built-in writing profiles + custom profiles; smart spoken commands

Notes

  • Verify your download against SHA256SUMS.txt
  • The installer is not code-signed yet; Windows SmartScreen may warn — choose More info → Run anyway
  • Requires Windows 11 x64, 16 GB RAM; NVIDIA GPU recommended
