There are a lot of tools already that do local speech-to-text, but none of them allowed me to "select" code/text in a file and then paste a reference to my selected code together with the transcript.

I wanted this to work locally and I wanted it to work independently of the IDE (because I'm using multiple). I also wanted it to work with any coding agent (Claude, Codex, OpenCode).

So I put together parakeet & ripgrep in a Rust tauri app. It works perfectly for me and I'm using it every day whenever I'm coding. Maybe it's also useful for others.
