ROAR now does more than type what you say — it acts on it, routes it, and listens for you.

ROAR Flow — say it, ROAR does it

  • Voice automations: say a trigger phrase at the start of a dictation and ROAR opens an app, opens a URL, presses a hotkey chord, inserts a snippet, speaks a reply, or copies text. Rules live in Settings → Settings → Flow and never fire mid-sentence.
  • Multi-channel routing: one dictation can also go to the clipboard, a timestamped local notes file, and/or be spoken back — on top of normal typing, never instead of it. Toggle by voice ("roar route notes on", "roar routes off") or the tray Flow routes menu. Extra routes always start OFF, and a failing route can never block typing.
  • Trusted rules: script, webhook, and OSC actions run only on rules you explicitly mark trusted, with a toast naming the rule when one fires.

Live transcript + meeting capture

  • Live view: History gains a Live toggle — a chat-style local view that refreshes every 2 seconds — plus an Export button that writes the current view to a timestamped text file.
  • Meeting capture (system audio): a tray toggle transcribes whatever your PC is playing — calls, meetings, videos — into local history via WASAPI loopback. No bot joins your call, nothing leaves your machine, and it never types into apps or touches your clipboard. Recording people may require their consent where you live.

Show control (OSC)

Trusted Flow rules can send OSC cues to lighting desks, QLab, Resolume, or TouchDesigner — "lights up" fires your cue. MIDI is on the roadmap.

Translate mode

Settings → Transcription → Translate to English: dictate in French, Spanish, Mandarin — ROAR types English. Whisper's built-in translate task, fully local, free in every edition.

Privacy, unchanged

Everything runs on your machine. The notes file is opt-in at a path you choose. The only possible outbound calls are a webhook or OSC datagram inside a rule you created and marked trusted — pinned by the network-hygiene test suite. No account, no telemetry, no subscription.

Install: download ROAR-Setup-0.32.0.exe below and run it (exit ROAR from the tray first if it's running). Settings → About → "Check for updates" now points here.

Editions: Core is free forever. Flow automations, routing, and meeting capture are ROAR Pro ($19 once); scripted/webhook/OSC actions are ROAR Developer ($29 once). Translate mode and the Live view are free. Gates remain display-only in this release.
