What is VocaWin?

VocaWin brings 100% offline, privacy-first voice-to-text to Windows. Hold a hotkey, speak, and text appears at your cursor. In any app. No cloud, no accounts, no subscriptions.

VocaWin is the Windows counterpart to VocaMac and VocaLinux, completing the Voca ecosystem across all major desktop platforms.

Key Principles

• 100% Offline - All speech recognition happens locally on your PC
• Privacy First - Your voice data never leaves your computer
• No Data Leaves Your System - Zero network calls for transcription
• Open Source - Every line of code is public and auditable
• No Telemetry - No analytics, no tracking, no crash reporting
• Free Forever - No subscriptions, no accounts, no premium tiers
• Windows Native - Built for Windows with GPU acceleration support
• Zero Cloud Dependencies - Works without an internet connection

Planned Features

• System-Wide Text Injection - Transcribed text appears wherever your cursor is. Browsers, Slack, VS Code, Word, Excel, terminals. Everywhere.
• Push-to-Talk & Toggle Mode - Hold a hotkey to record or double-tap to toggle. Simple, predictable control.
• GPU Accelerated - NVIDIA CUDA, AMD, and Intel GPU acceleration for blazing fast transcription.
• 99+ Languages - Auto-detect or specify your language with Whisper model support.
• Smart Model Selection - Auto-detects your hardware and recommends the optimal model.
• Silence Detection - Auto-stops recording after you stop speaking with adjustable sensitivity.
• Fully Configurable - Choose hotkeys, models, languages, and silence detection thresholds.
• Visual Feedback - System tray icon changes and audio level indicators show recording state.
• Clipboard Preservation - Your clipboard is saved and restored after text injection.
