Fape 0.2.539

Fape now starts with one verified email account and a seven-day trial. Managed transcription and correction run through Fape's central service, so there are no provider API keys to configure or distribute to the desktop.

• Dictation, correction, scratchpad and voice actions are included in the trial.
• Optional local Parakeet recognition now supports your dictionary; keyboard and mouse shortcuts work on Omarchy.
• Access follows your trial or subscription rather than a fixed build-expiry date. Saved history and drafts remain accessible after access ends.
• Installation supports the tested fcitx5 5.1.22 and 5.1.23 native text integrations, preserves preferences and waits for active work before updating.

The trial includes five processing hours and 250,000 text tokens. Planned subscriptions are €10/month or €100/year, with ten processing hours and one million text tokens per calendar month. Payments are not enabled yet; the application clearly shows that checkout is unavailable. Local recognition and personal-key modes also require application access after the trial.

For Omarchy on x86_64. See the updated product page for screenshots, privacy details and the installation command: https://tokenschmiede.com/fape/

Application revision: 8ccedc7a4ab1. Build expiry: none (account-managed access).

Fape 0.2.392

New installations start in Dictionary only. Settings and onboarding offer screen vocabulary and post-processing only when personal Soniox and Cerebras keys are saved. Without those keys, the selected mode now matches effective dictionary-only dictation. Adding keys unlocks the other choices without automatically changing a fresh installation's mode; existing explicit preferences remain preserved.

This optimized package is published through the new resumable fix-release workflow, with focused regression checks, production CSP verification, fresh package-default checks and complete public download hash verification. Maintenance publication preserves existing admission settings.

Application revision: 33edb8ec4b71. Fixed beta expiry: 2026-11-11T12:38:49Z.

Fape 0.2.384: easy, safe removal

Every installation now includes fape-uninstall, so you can remove Fape without keeping the downloaded package. A quiet Uninstall Fape… action sits at the bottom of Settings. Keep your keys, preferences, history and shortcuts for reinstall, or explicitly delete saved local data, including recordings.

Removal respects active work, preserves unrelated desktop configuration, restores prior tray preferences, and keeps its result visible in a separate terminal. Cleanup is retryable after partial failures and also works when the application binary is missing.

This optimized beta was accepted in the existing Omarchy VM using these exact package bytes: both Settings removal modes, cancellation, safe-stop refusal, retained-data reinstall and missing-binary recovery. Offline application, installer, API, frontend and CSP checks passed. No microphone or provider calls were needed.

Application revision: e9d166f4dd83. Fixed beta expiry: 11 November 2026, 10:38:30 UTC.

Fape 0.2.378: clear trial credentials and voice action requirements

API keys are now a prominent, always-visible section in Settings. Trial Soniox status identifies the Tokenschmiede temporary key and distinguishes funded dictation from personal provider credentials.

Voice actions explain which keys are missing and offer direct links to the key fields. Action controls remain greyed out until both personal Soniox and Cerebras keys are added. The temporary trial Soniox key covers dictation only.

History shows one Copy transcript button for straight or unchanged transcription, and separate original/corrected copies when the saved correction changed the text.

Verified with 160 frontend tests, 496 Rust tests (4 ignored), the full offline suite, all 11 routes under production CSP, focused browser checks using synthetic credentials, and package integrity/defaults checks. No microphone, live-provider, or VM tests were performed for this UI release.

Each beta build expires 30 days after building. Installation preserves saved settings and history.

Fape 0.2.374: native surrounding-text support

The ordinary installer now includes Fape's native fcitx5 surrounding-text addon and Hyprland compatibility shim. New installations enable local spacing and list formatting. Updates preserve saved choices; dictionary suggestions from edits remain opt-in. Onboarding uses the same native formatting as other applications.

The exact installer passed clean Omarchy 4 VM acceptance, including native text/caret/selection, delivery spacing, preserved updates, uninstall and reinstall. No application-specific JavaScript paste handler is included.

Requires Omarchy 4 on x86_64 with fcitx5 5.1.22. This beta expires on 2026-11-11T08:53:59Z, including with personal API keys.

Application revision: ad71d582abd1. ZIP, tarball, self-extracting installer and checksum sidecars are attached. The seven-day trial needs no email or personal provider key; correction and voice actions require personal Soniox and Cerebras keys.

fape 0.2.356 beta for Omarchy

Fape 0.2.356 beta for Omarchy 4 on x86_64 Linux.

Install from the Fape website or use the attached self-extracting .run, ZIP, or tarball. SHA-256 sidecars are attached for every package; release.json pins the ZIP and installer identity.

The free trial starts at activation and includes seven days with up to five hours of dictation, without an account, email, payment details, or API keys. Trial recordings are limited to four minutes. Reinstalling does not restart the trial. The funded trial covers dictation only, even with a configured Cerebras key. Your own Soniox key takes precedence; optional correction and voice actions require both your own Soniox and Cerebras keys, with usage billed by those providers.

This optimized beta has a fixed expiry of 2026-11-11T07:40:04Z, including with personal keys. The deadline is 30 days from building, not installation. Updating preserves existing settings, keys, and history.

Application revision: 7949b75591de. These are the same expiring artifacts accepted by the automated Omarchy VM test; they were not rebuilt for publication. Source code remains private.

fape 0.2.291 beta for Omarchy

Fape beta for Omarchy 4 on x86_64 Linux.

Install in one command:

curl -fsSL https://tokenschmiede.com/fape-trial/install.sh | bash

Setup opens automatically. Start a seven-day trial without an email, account or API key, or use your own Soniox key. Cerebras is optional for basic dictation. Tap Ctrl+Super+X to start/stop, or hold the same shortcut to talk. Existing/custom shortcuts are preserved.

This executable expires on 7 November 2026 at 09:15:10 UTC, including with personal keys. Install a newer beta before the deadline.

Application revision: 6881b7953dd4. The exact ZIP and self-extracting installer passed end-to-end installation, real trial transcription with output held, update preservation and uninstall checks in the existing Omarchy VM. Checksums accompany each package.
