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 code fixes 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.py to 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。
