What do you actually use for STT, particularly if you prize performance over privacy and are comfortable using your own API keys?
I was on WhisperFlow for a while until the trial ran out, and I'm really tempted to subscribe. I don't think I can go back to a local solution after that, the performance difference is insane.
Try ottex.ai - it has an OpenRouter like gateway with most STT models on the market (Gemini, OpenAI, Groq, Deepgram, Mistral, AssemblyAI, Soniox), so you can try them all and choose what works best for you.
My favorites are Gemini 3 Flash and Mistral Voxtral Transcribe 2. Gemini when I need special formatting and clean-up, and Voxtral when I need fast input (mostly when working with AI).
