Learn about Amical
Open source AI Dictation and Note-taking Amical is a desktop app that lets you dictate hands-free, transcribe meetings, and capture notes effortlessly.
Power of Amical lies in the fact that it is context aware - based on where you are using the dictaion (talking to your cowerkers on slack, commenting on social media, talking to your friends, writing a formal email) so thats its as accurate as typing it your self, just 3x faster and formatted perfectly. Further its goal is to be an AI Voice assistant that lives on your desktop and on your phone (soon) so that you can not only dictate but also record and transcribe meetings, take notes and more. All possible with the power of Gen AI.
Amical is open source (MIT - licensed) and local first. It not only supports local models but makes it as easy as a single click to run those and use those models with Amical.
