OpenBean 0.3.0
OpenBean 0.3.0 — recordings now turn into notes on their own, and voice typing got faster and more accurate. Everything still runs on your Mac.
Requirements: macOS 26 or later, Apple silicon. Download OpenBean-0.3.0.dmg, open it and drag OpenBean to Applications. Signed with Developer ID and notarized by Apple. If you have 0.2.0, install this one by hand once; from here on OpenBean updates itself.
Recordings into your notes
- Auto-sync — new recordings download over Bluetooth when the recorder connects and is idle. The sync button shows how long it will take, and the time left while downloading.
- Summaries — after transcription, the LLM service you set up for clean-up (local or cloud) writes a title, a summary, key points and to-dos. Long recordings are summarised in parts and merged. Clips too short to summarise are left alone. Off by default.
- Notes — one Markdown note per recording in a folder you choose, for example inside an Obsidian vault: properties, summary, a link back to OpenBean and the timestamped transcript. The template is editable. Notes you have edited are never overwritten. Off by default.
- Delete from the recorder — right-click a recording that is fully downloaded. Experimental: the command follows community notes and has not been confirmed on hardware; it always asks first and cannot be undone.
Voice typing
- Quiet speech is no longer dropped. Audio is brought to a normal level before sentence detection, with a whole-clip fallback. On 9 hours of real dictation, clips that came out empty went from about 10% to under 0.2%.
- Word list with aliases —
Claude Code = cloud codefixes a term the recogniser keeps getting wrong; same-sound words are corrected without an LLM. The word list also applies to summaries. - Faster start — about 0.6 s from shortcut to listening, down from about 1.6 s.
- Custom keyboard shortcut — Settings → Voice typing → Keyboard shortcut → Custom….
- Clipboard fallback — when the cursor is clearly not in a text field, the text is copied to the clipboard instead of being typed into nowhere.
- Recovers when the recorder is already recording and the app did not know.
Also
- Automatic updates (Sparkle): checks once a day and asks before installing. Check for Updates… is in the menu bar menu.
- Battery log and
Scripts/battery-report.pyto work out standby and voice-typing drain from a day of wear. - New links for Shortcuts and scripts:
openbean://summarize/<id>,openbean://notes/backfill,openbean://type-test.
OpenBean 0.3.0:录音自动变成笔记,语音输入更快更准。仍然全部在本机运行。
要求:macOS 26 及以上,Apple 芯片。下载 OpenBean-0.3.0.dmg,打开后拖进「应用程序」。已用 Developer ID 签名并通过 Apple 公证。装的是 0.2.0 的话需要手动装一次,之后 App 会自动更新。
- 自动同步:录音豆连上且空闲时自动经蓝牙下载新录音;同步按钮旁显示预计时长,下载中显示剩余时间。
- 摘要(默认关):转写后由你在「润色」里配置的大模型服务生成标题、摘要、要点和待办;长录音分段摘要再合并,太短的录音不摘要。
- 笔记(默认关):每条录音在你选的文件夹里写一份 Markdown 笔记,例如放进 Obsidian 知识库;模板可改,你改过的笔记不会被覆盖。
- 从录音豆删除录音(实验性):右键已完整下载的录音。命令未经真机确认,删除前会询问,删了不能恢复。
- 轻声不再漏识别:在 9 小时真实语音上,整条输出为空的比例从约 10% 降到 0.2% 以下。
- 词表支持误听写法:
Claude Code = cloud code;同音词不用大模型也能纠正,摘要也会用词表。 - 启动更快:按下快捷键到开始听写约 0.6 秒(原来约 1.6 秒)。
- 自定义快捷键;焦点不在输入框时改为拷到剪贴板;录音豆已在录音而 App 不知道时能自动恢复。
- 自动更新(Sparkle):每天检查一次,安装前先问你。
OpenBean 0.2.0
First signed release of OpenBean, the open-source Mac app for the soundcore Work (D3200) recorder. Everything runs on your Mac: no vendor app, no account, no cloud.
Requirements: macOS 26 or later, Apple silicon. Download OpenBean-0.2.0.dmg, open it and drag OpenBean to Applications. The DMG is signed with Developer ID and notarized by Apple.
What's in it
- Voice typing — press the recorder's button (or ⌥ Space) and talk; text appears where your cursor is. Apple's on-device dictation shows a live preview, SenseVoice finalises each sentence with punctuation. Pauses decide commas, full stops and new paragraphs.
- Optional LLM clean-up — removes filler words and fixes homophones from your personal word list, keeping your wording. Works with a local OpenAI-compatible server (llama.cpp, Ollama, LM Studio) or a cloud service with an API key (kept in your keychain).
- Library — sync recordings over Bluetooth, or about 100× faster over the recorder's own Wi‑Fi; transcribe them offline; play back with click-to-seek; export.
- Main window — Overview dashboard (recorder battery and storage, recording and dictation totals, last 14 days), Library, Voice typing history, Recorder details and Settings. ⌘1–⌘4 switch pages, ⌘, opens Settings.
- Menu bar — the bean icon shows connected, listening, syncing or disconnected.
- Automation —
openbean://dictate/toggle,sync,open,settings/<tab>for Shortcuts, Raycast or scripts. - English and Simplified Chinese.
On first launch a setup assistant connects the recorder, downloads the speech models (~240 MB) and asks for Bluetooth and Accessibility permission.
