AI Dictation in Ollama
Talk to Ollama models running locally on your Mac or PC at full sentence speed — Amical formats prompts for Llama, Mistral, Qwen, and any other open-weight model you have pulled down.
Why typing in Ollama is slowing you down
Long prompts feel like work
Local Llama and Mistral models reward detailed prompts, but typing penalises them. Voice removes the friction so the model on your machine finally gets the architectural context it actually has the capacity to use.
Iteration breaks under typing
Iterating with a local model works best as a conversation — refine, retry, redirect. Typing every turn breaks the natural rhythm voice would close: speak the next instruction, see the next answer, repeat without keyboard fatigue.
Privacy is the whole point
You picked Ollama precisely to keep prompts and responses off third-party servers. Routing dictation through cloud transcription is exactly the privacy contradiction voice should not be reintroducing into your local-first AI workflow.
What Amical does in Ollama
Fully local processing available
Amical local-Whisper option processes everything entirely on your machine — the exact privacy posture Ollama users picked Ollama for, extended to the dictation layer. Audio never leaves your device, mirroring the local-first architecture of the model you are talking to.
Long-form prompting at speed
A multi-paragraph prompt with full architectural intent and prior context goes from idea to submitted in under a minute. Local models with bigger context windows finally get the full prompt they can use, instead of the truncated version typing would have forced.
Multilingual prompting
Ollama supports models tuned for many languages. Amical handles language switches mid-prompt automatically without changing modes — Spanish prompt with English code, Mandarin question with English follow-up, all flowing without keyboard juggling.
