Most voice typing lives in the cloud, costs a monthly fee, and eats your GPU. Levitan doesn't. Hold a key, speak, and polished text appears where your cursor is - in any app. Runs locally on your CPU, fully offline, nothing leaves your device. Free forever. RU/KZ/EN + 96 languages. Windows & macOS.
Privacy-first AI is one of those spaces where trust can become a much stronger moat than features.
Curious—do users adopt Levitan because it's local/private, or do they stay because the workflow ends up being better than cloud alternatives?
@aryan787544 It depends on the user’s needs. For those who simply need dictation, Levitan fully meets their requirements, so they continue using it. It is especially useful when working on a laptop somewhere without an internet connection and dictating thoughts, notes, or ideas.
@kolomeitsev That makes sense.
I'm curious whether that changes over time as well. Someone might adopt it because it's private and offline, but still end up relying on it for a completely different reason months later. It'll be interesting to see if those reasons diverge as your user base grows.
Privacy-first AI is becoming a much more interesting space than people expected.
Curious—what's been the bigger driver of adoption so far: privacy, or the experience once people actually try Levitan?

This is genuinely cool, offline voice typing that just works sounds amazing. One thing that would make it a daily driver for me is a custom vocabulary or glossary feature, letting me add jargon, names, or technical terms so it stops mangling them in transcripts.
@eyupsapc10102 I’m planning to add this together with a small local LLM that will handle punctuation, paragraph breaks, and dictionary-based word correction.
the offline angle is genuinely cool and the free model makes this way more approachable than whisper-based alternatives i've tried. one thing that would actually push me to use it daily though, could you add a custom vocabulary or replacement rule system? like so i can set "levitan" to always become "Levitan" or auto-format certain phrases i say a lot. would make the raw transcription feel way more polished without me having to fix stuff every time.

honestly love the offline angle, super rare these days. one thing i'd actually use though is a custom vocabulary or shortcuts feature so i can teach it my weird jargon and have it auto-replace spoken phrases with longer snippets, that would save me way more time than just raw dictation
